Sociocide at the 24/7

Ferocious and unsparing, Paul Cunningham's incomparable poetry is a carnivalesque, nightmare voyage through the dark wasteland that is twenty-first century America. -Jonathan CraryIn your fantasy, am I duck or dog? The world is ending, but not as fast as one might hope, so let's kill time at the 7/11 forever. Let's kill all the time. You bring your bloodlust and your Warhol wig, I'll bring my copy of Paul Cunningham's Sociocide at the 24/7, plus the ant-farm I've wired to my fear receptors. Here, hold this riveting glittery reliquary of our glitchy lateness, slick w/ambivalence. Btw I drank your smoothie of Gila monster venom, microplastics & adaptogens, so cold and so sweet. -Joyelle McSweeneyIf our post-internet era is in a semiotic labyrinth, Sociocide at the 24/7 is like bringing a disco ball into a mirror maze. Fast, fun, and having its way entirely with the language of our culture: this is my kind of poetics. I really loved this book. -Ben Fama
