About book The Unwords: Exposing The Dishonest Language Of A Culture In Decline (2013)
Wow.....0000000000000000000000000000000001 stars.This book aimed for profundity and landed on naïveté. The writing reads like the vague ramblings of an 18 year old who believes his mind has been opened, all of the posers have been exposed, and that this 18 year old alone has all of the answers to the world's problems.Yeah. No.I downloaded this book because I am interested in exploring the way ebook forms can combine many mediums. In this way, Unwords is interesting, but still not a success. The use of contrasting colors and bold font does not a profound statement make.This book read like something written by The Underground Man. However, instead of recognizing its absurdity, Unwords seems to be taken with its own assumed profundity (which, I restate, is absent). Unfortunately, instead of revealing the gag, the commitment to a created, absurd character, the introduction instead confirmed my feeling that the author truly believes he has done something marvelously profound in this book. I got The Unwords because it was free on Amazon.com. From the title I expected it was a discourse on the use and misuse of language in our culture. That's not what it is.One thing that is unusual about this book is that almost every page is written on a graphic, and image of some sort. This is the first time I've seen this on my Kindle. That's the best part of this book.The author is unknown, anonymous, Non Nomen. The author has a damaged, dismal outlook. She resents her parents.The text is written in the format of poetry. It is poetry-like, poetoid. Quasi-verse, pseudo-verse. Unverse.

Poetry worth exploring for the truths that gut punch the reader.
