Book synopsis

This title features short stories of: a young man seeking to hack into his own unconscious mind; an academic conference on the metaphysics of flies; an apocalyptic world where punctuation has been outlawed; and an eating disorder that produces collectible antiques. A mix of allegory, satire, randomly generated numbers, spam messages rearranged into haiku form, plagiarism, and bad writing presented in the more sophisticated if still unpalatable guise of literary experimentation, Phil Jourdan's collection of stories is infuriating, challenging and other marketing buzzwords.
