"A mutant fiction of speculative mysticism: time travel, visions and inner paths to outer space by Hildegard of Bingen and Huw Lemmey, Bhanu Kapil and Alice Spawls. Hildegard’s mystic toolkit for the future includes a cosmology, medicine, a morphology of crystals, recipes – and the symbols of a new language. Lingua Ignota, Hildegard's mysterious invented ‘unknown language’, arrives just in time for a world in flux, one whose coordinates are being recast."
