Miraculum Monstrum is an epic hybrid narrative about Tristia Vogel,
a female artist who experiences a radical physical transformation,
beginning with the excrescence of apparent wings. Though she is
possibly an anomalous mutation resulting from worldwide ecological
upheaval, the bird/woman is co-opted by a religious cult that
claims to have prophesied her experience; she is thus written as
the central figure of their scriptural text. The fragmentary poem
that is Miraculum Monstrum, which bears the same name as the
fictitious codex quoted throughout, is presented within a catalog
for an exhibit of visual artifacts and writings that chronicle this
speculative history. The exhibition curator persona performs a duel
function as narrative voice within the poem and critical
commentator on the exhibit.
