Now available to all. The great Jack BC (@supersquat1) of @bookclubhell666 joined me to talk about Dino Buzzati's THE STRONGHOLD, a sort of homage to Kafka that is mind-bending, beautiful, and deeply familiar for all its strangeness. Link below.

I challenge anyone to read the first two chapters of my book and not want to read further. Read the first five and you will finish the book. There is a free pdf download in my pinned tweet.
Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️@christopherrufo

I read the first hundred pages of The Road last year, and read the first hundred pages of Blood Meridian this year, and in both instances, gave up, because the books never clicked. Lyrical writing, but the characters are reduced to way down Maslow's hierarchy, and the tone is so relentlessly bleak, with almost no humanity breaking through, it was difficult to feel anything besides the flint clicking against the cold steel in the overwhelming darkness. I know many of you love it, but to me, it's overwrought, overstylized, and overhyped.

@madmethodpod @cairoasmith @newritualpress My book 'Carbon Pages' is New Wave literature. It's litrature of the xxi century. Probably the best book of the movement.

This was a lot of fun. Get in there. And buy a copy of THE EARTHEN DARK already. It's easily the best independently-published work of blue-collar cosmic sewer horror published in the last few months.

Icymi, Jacob Everett (@blauer_geist) of @APCON_MAG joined me to riotously revel in the hot-blooded hysterics and primal paranoia of James Ellroy's AMERICAN TABLOID, a great American novel if there ever was one. Link to full episode below.

@madmethodpod Thanks for answering my question. I like the idea of people getting too old for a certain lifestyle yet still hanging on—there's so much quiet drama in that. The whole episode was great.

Someone just like me muttering enviously about Father Chad Ripperger (exorcist): "That guy found a way to get paid for hanging out and chatting with legions of demons, like, every day!"
