Age of the Demon Tools by Mark Spitzer

Hi all! Just a quick note to let you know that Jesse and I will be working on posting up a couple of new projects this weekend. The first, Mark Spitzer’s newest bad-ass book, Age of the Demon Tools. Writes Skip Fox of Spitzer’s new book:

Triage of daily life and text, mines in the headlines, flat faced mutancy in the details of man’s folly and avarice, rapacity and ballsack confusion, set against an individual pastorale amid the cowpies, text addled by brush, “angry vines,” and “channel cats with mongo backs,” sluiced with wind and wave, in turn set against the maw of what increasingly seems to no longer exist, green world of birdsong, face of simple intention, word strong as bough, and so forth (and yet . . .). Text with an edge like a serial killer’s holiday in a target rich environment, the monkeyward of Washington, or the plains of Iraq and Afghanistan, corporate board rooms and city council meetings clotted with preening inanities in the form of the human, etc., the text’s language slick as a lineman’s clit, doffing a nod to the warbled wordexitry of Burgess and the wee ones who sleep in eaves, all woven with the witchery of electronic missives, condensing words to mush. Spitzer in battle-rut (Moloch panting beneath.)

—Skip Fox, author of At That
