Written in fluent poetic verse which expands into full-page, full color illustrations, the words blend seamlessly with the arts as they form novel-like chapters which end with a single, dynamic sentence a new, refreshing form of writing known as 'Graphic-verse.' The Unwords became a Goodreads Choice Awards Finalist in 2012, the first ever book to be nominated in the history of Goodreads that didn't have an identifiable author. Education, religion, politics, language, relationships and common every day social activities are stripped down to their bare foundations and deconstructed through the eyes of a man who has rejected any notion of self in his quest for the truth. A disturbing, thought-provoking journey through the facts of the world we live in that we often refuse to acknowledge.īy taking full advantage of their author's lack of identity and extreme levels of introspection, The Unwords unleash a full scale attack on all fronts of cultural and social decay.
