Life Is... #786405

An Unapologetic Tour Guide to Territory Most Writers Avoid.

What truly is life? For Darren Hobson, it’s a grim joke told with a meat cleaver. This collection is a raw, unflinching blend of poetry and prose that dissects human existence with blunt honesty and a vein of biting dark humour. Abandon polite verse for explosive tales of vengeance—from lovers dragged into a harvester to executives impaled on telephone poles—and rail against the "Zesekunnts" and "evil people" who poison our world. Mixing soul-crushing despair with graphic, earned consequences, Life is.. is a continuous transmission from the frayed edges of reality. If you are ready for a poetry collection that pulls no punches and provides no comfort, then this journey into the brutal, complex, and unvarnished truth awaits. Be warned: the imagery is explicit and absolutely not for the faint of heart.
