“The Blood of Stars” invites us to think
about the relation between the presence
of iron — a fugitive from the stars,
sleeping deep inside the earth — and
the veins of warm-blooded mammals. It
reads meteorites for clues about the stains
at the edge of every sharp blade that
cuts into flesh, and registers resonances
that ricochet between mining, militarism
and the mutations that mark a remote
landscape.
