'Enter ‘Carpentaria’ into Yasiv.com and the screen is populated with an ever-expanding constellation of books. This is one way of imagining transits of Alexis Wright’s novel offshore. These are associations, and sometimes seemingly random affiliations driven by the purchases of Amazon customers. There is no quantitative information about book sales here, we cannot derive any historical or conceptual insights or information about curricula or courses that produce these associations. This digital tool launches Carpentaria into a vast network of books that resists orderly associations of canons, traditions, and fields.' (Introduction)
