Heat, Flesh, and Trash, a triptych of Southeast Asian anthologies.
If you live in South-East Asia, chances are you have some interesting and conflicting ideas about trash and what that word means. From the ever-present litter everywhere and the casual tossing of trash bags over bridges into rivers (and then complaining when they flood) to the almost thoughtless dismissal of those classes of humanity we deem below us, we could easily say that we find trash everywhere.
This makes it interesting then, that the last book in Fixi Novo’s set of South-East Asian anthologies is called Trash. The last book in the thematic triptych that began with Heat and Flesh, Trash is an interesting look at the people and cultures that make up this region and the curious commonality of the idea of trash that connects us all.
