We're happy to announce the planned publication, in late October 2026, of two experimental novellas by Ilker Artiran, SANDFACE & SYMBIOSIS. "A visionary work of posthuman poetics situated somewhere between industrial noise, cybernetic fiction, and desert mysticism." In SANDFACE, İlker Artıran constructs a sprawling hallucinated landscape witnessing the collapse of flesh, code, desert, machine, memory. Part epic poem, part cybernetic nightmare, part posthuman scripture, the text unfolds as an immense field of linguistic drift, populated by abandoned technologies, synthetic voices, industrial ruins, spectral identities, and faces emerging from, & dissolving back into, the sand. Written in relentless waves of associative montage, SANDFACE inhabits a world where language itself has become a malfunctioning biosystem: a site of contamination, mutation, recursive self-construction. Bodies are rewritten as data, machines dream of flesh, consciousness flickers between noise & signal, presence & disappearance. What emerges is an ecology of intensities, a darkly lyrical meditation on technology, death, desire, & all the very unstable architectures of the self. Drawing on cut-up writing, cyberpunk, industrial music, experimental poetry & posthumanist theory, Artıran has produced a singular work of visionary excess: at once brutal & beautiful, philosophical & visceral, apocalyptic & strangely intimate.

Lungfish, by @LouisArmxnd, published earlier this year, is a multi-layered work of docufiction, weaving myth, memory & true crime into a sprawling narrative of Australia & its shadows. A late-80s phantasmagoria set in a rural Australian town, trailing a pack of whacked-out kids & a battered VH Valiant Ranger as it tears through heat, dust, riverbeds, & bad history. Lungfish holds Australia open, exposing storytelling itself as a contested terrain shaped by erasure & violence, all the while refusing to forget. “Dense, playful writing that boldly & unapologetically experiments with form & tone. Louis Armand’s Lungfish is a stream of conscience machine gun fever dream that feels strangely familiar, but also like no place I’ve ever been.”—Glendyn Ivin “Necromodernist travel writing from another dimension. Armand returns to his Antipodean roots in an unsettling and raucous effort which takes pot shots at settler-colonial sacred cows.”—Wayne Bradshaw For more information & ordering details please visit equuspress.wordpress.com/lun… DM us for review copies.

Ansgar ALLEN, JONATHAN MARTIN (Equus, 2025) Ansgar Allen resurrects the incendiary life of the 19th-century outsider who, in 1829, set fire to York Minster. Martin’s life — at once prophetic, deranged, and tragically emblematic of his age — becomes the ground for Allen’s boldest experiment in historical fiction to date. Blending archival fragments, self-published pamphlets, trial records, and fictionalised reconstructions, Ansgar Allen asks: was Martin a prophet or a lunatic, an arsonist or a visionary? “A powerful meditation on authorial voice, writing as prophecy, and the boundaries between sanity and inspiration, Jonathan Martin continues Allen’s exploration of institutional education and deviance from social order. It is a work of fiction that refuses to perpetuate the illusion of coherence, confronting the reader instead with the broken totality of a life lived on the edge of destruction.” —David Vichnar, Erratum Press Review For more info and ordering details visit equuspress.wordpress.com/jon…

404_ERROR, by R.G. Vasicek & Zak Ferguson (Equus, 2022), merges comedic disjunction, horror, and meta-commentary with the architecture of error. The novel treats the 404 error not just as a digital glitch but as a metaphoric self, a presence that haunts every access point, every reflection, every system breakdown. According to a reviewer, it “shifts between comedy and horror, commentary and meta-commentary, wetware and meatspace,” pushing the sense of the instability underlying our presumed “realities.” The book is also advertised as machine-made, a “pocket machine that requires no batteries,” signalling its ambition to become both content and medium. equuspress.wordpress.com/404…

‘Imagine somewhere a great and splendid hall where everything is done to produce joy and merriment – but the entrance to this hall is a nasty, muddy, horrible stairway, and it is impossible to pass without getting disgustingly soiled and admission is paid by prostituting oneself, and when day dawns the merriment is over and all ends with one’s being kicked out again. But the whole night through everything is done to keep up and inflame the merriment and pleasure.’ The editorial work is nearing completion on PAINTING EYES ON CHAOS, Phil O'Neil's final text he completed just before his untimely demise last autumn. Off to the typesetter presently, available for pre-order review copy already. Envisaged publication: late April. Here's a back cover sneak preview, more info to follow.

"How do you replicate a feeling in a way that doesn’t seek to make it relatable? How do you enact it instead?" spoke to Mathilde Montpetit from The Auflauf about GLANTZ ( @EquusPress ), and some big news regarding @MinorLits 's 2026 plans ... linked below

Does anyone have a theory, reference, or educated hunch as to the origin of the title of @LouisArmxnd's A TOMB IN H-SECTION (2025)? Medical ward? Prison block? Holocaust archive shorthand? Geological stratum? Or is it simply the most aggressively bureaucratic way of naming a grave? Genuinely curious whether this is a traceable reference, a private code, or one of those titles that looks like it comes from somewhere very specific and probably doesn’t — except atmospherically, psychologically, metaphysically. Speculation, citations, wild guesses welcome. Bonus points (free PDF of a 2025 Equus title) for wrong answers delivered with confidence. equuspress.wordpress.com/a-t…
