Publisher Marketing: A poetry collection that embraces the absurd and mysterious.
LM Rivera’s THE BOOK OF THE RED ABSURD is a poetic autobiography seen through the lens of literature, cinema, theory, history, mythology, and demonology. Presenting themselves in a sort of kinship with academic traditions, these poems move beyond scholarly preciousness to uncover something deeper, stranger, and more honest. This collection is a descent into an absurdist avant-garde performance, immersing the reader in the head of “red” experiences–those with sensations of extremity, despair, amusement, and derision. Here we find a heart laid bare through poetry that aims for the deadliest parts and dances wildly along the way.
