Once something becomes aware of its existence, once something is born to nothing, it cannot compel itself to cease except by cruelly wishing with futility for deliverance.\"\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe debut work of English author and musician Jacob H. Kyle, \u003ci\u003eThe Tedium Lies\u003c\/i\u003e is a treatise of temperament formulated from fragmentary cahiers into aphoristic prose poems comprising four topical chapters: epistemological metaphysics, religious critique, existential pessimism, and literary as well as linguistic analysis. Now newly revised with the original foreword by Andre Solnikkar. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"An affecting poetic treatise of pessimistic reactivity to the exterior horrors of being, not without a thoroughly introspective melancholy. A must-read for admirers of Pessoa and Cioran, Jacob H. Kyle engraves a most prominent anti-writ in a disquieting voice of its own (upon and beyond the former authors' redolent corpses).\"\u003cbr\u003e- Elytron Frass, author of \u003ci\u003eMoieties\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eVITIATORS\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eLiber Exuvia\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"\u003ci\u003e'You and I have awoken into the very nightmare of Being.'\u003c\/i\u003e Thus begins this beautiful collection of prose pieces lamenting the wretched fecundity of Life. There is a lucidity and a brutality to these pieces that readers of Cioran, Solnikkar, Gary J. Shipley, and other writers of that nature will greatly appreciate. It is a welcome addition to any rotted shelf of sorrowful tomes.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Jacob McMillan, author of \u003ci\u003eEternism - Death and Individuation between Mainl\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"INDEPENDENTLY PUBLISHED","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51569460871458,"sku":"9798397777827-new","price":11.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/4755\/5618\/files\/9798397777827.jpg?v=1777147935","url":"https:\/\/www.albakireads.com\/products\/tedium-lies-9798397777827-new","provider":"AlbakiReads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
