Pig Earth

Pig Earth traces a sequence of conditions through which consciousness emerges, organises, and ultimately fractures under its own weight. It follows the slow organisation of mind from instinct into structure, from structure into consciousness, only for this awareness to rupture, turning back upon the organism that hosts it. If evolution tends toward efficiency, then consciousness appears excessive. If it tends toward survival, then consciousness appears compromised. The conscious animal becomes the animal that hesitates, the animal that suffers its own awareness, the animal for whom existence is no longer given but must be continually reckoned with. In this sense, consciousness may be less a culmination than a misstep: not the enlightenment of the organism, but its undoing.

A Man Changes its Skin

The construction of the Vakhsh Canal, one of the largest new buildings of the first five-year plan, is underway. Two Americans are coming here under contract. A seasoned spy, Colonel Bailey, who introduced himself as the harmless traveler Mr. Murry, would later be caught red-handed and exposed. And Mr. Clark, who came to the "make money" channel, will gradually become convinced that work and politics are not such different concepts. Not accepting socialism, he quite sincerely sympathizes with the enthusiasm of the Soviet people. Love for the translator - Komsomol member Maria Polozova - helps Clark to comprehend what is happening.
