Critiques en avant-première
Do you see what I see?... Substantive-difficult-unique work seeking intelligent-committed readers. Please, only those with introspective spectacles, willing to evolve to legit lit.
An exceedingly simplistic description to an extremely complex work, but, hey, hunger necessitates that I present a refection upon your plate. So, with that expectation for those idealistic childhood years to proceed in the same Manor, Seth's path was altered by a bullet (of mental health) so forceful, that Mother was pressed to deliver Seth to a facility that will eventually extract the innocence of who he was, and can no longer be.
While at Epidaurus, Seth will become entangled to those residents with far more diverse bullets impeding their transitions into maturity than his own. Yet, they'll assist Seth in that metamorphosis to whom he shall ultimately become, and what he must do: compose those reflections from that perspective of a suspended snowflake.
Joseph Green is an anomaly with a devout Christian mother and absentee father. Jo (sometimes Joseph, sometimes Joanne, but always Jo), unable to atone for his sins as a homosexual, is renounced by his genetic guardians, and forced onto the streets. His anger will crash-dummy him into Epidaurus, where he'll connect with his adoptive brother Seth. Ingratiated into Seth's family, Jo-Jo (one Jo for each gender) can leisure at the Manor. Yet, he's drafted by a community displaced, so that he may trans-send his experiences onto the benefit of those in similar predicaments. Ultimately, Jo-Jo will transform into Giuseppe Verde, the Entertainer.
Rosemary McCormack is a naive schoolgirl, who's allured to a fraternal bacchanalia. After being sexually assaulted by the brotherhood, the Black Death that ensues, inveigles her attempt to abort that trauma, along with the life-force additioned from that encounter. Unsuccessful, with failure now tagged to her lapel, Pregnant Mary is transported to Epidaurus, where she'll become adjoined to her siblings, Seth and Jo-Jo
Seth, Jo-Jo, Pregnant Mary, Pez D Spenser, the Preacher, Peter the Rock, Mad Mike, Ollie Cums: the multifarious peculiarities at Epidaurus. Perhaps, you be peculiar enough? Possibly, you be curious, compassionate enough? Perhaps, possibly, you be a participant in this evolution, this evolution to legit lit?
If you're presently not gripped, I presume those moments to captivate your contemplation shall only further fade. So, my appreciation for your present heedfulness, and any possible considerations towards my work... "It's a show... Freak show... You'll see."

When we come home after a difficult day, we all like to kick our feet upon the coffee table, and enjoy some entertainment from the sofa. You know, a ball game, a movie, a television show. Yet, such is but as hot dog, filling to the appetite, but meant only to divert.
If only hot dogs are consumed, when a filet is presented to the palate, it settles upon that sense as an abnormality.
After all, the normal deprived of its ab-ity, as the nutrition is stripped from the whole grain, to mill a whitened flour.
What the hell's this, Harriet? Ain't no normal story?
In a society where our pulsation beats to a rhythm of hurry-hurry-hurry.. You know, fast food, easy answers on the internet, a magician's sleight of hand to our distresses.. The Last Generation offers an alternative. For, this legit lit emphasizes exceptional quality, as evidenced by a patience of years to compose.
If prepared properly, legit lit can quite possibly uplift those savorings into a more meaningful taste. Yet, introspective spectacles are a required utensil to consume such a hefty filet. For, The Last Generation shall consciously expand your perspective further than those 2 inches in front of the nose that most sights can only reach to. But, a commitment of your intelligence is necessary, and necessary a committed intelligence. However, the initial passage perusing through should enlighten the reader as to the plot and its characters. Subsequent delvings, explore those depths of meaning. But, don't get hung-up on unfamiliar words, or seemingly incomprehensible phrasings. So, settle your attention to a tranquil nook... Read a little.. Digest.. Read a little.. Digest... Multiple ingestings are most likely essential, as a single dose will probably only diminish its effectiveness.
Everything I've presented about The Last Generation is that it's a demanding and difficult work, requiring commitment, certainly not for everyone. Yet, do not fear this Yeti, as legit lit must always be accepting to a difference of opinion, regardless of the author's intent to sway the reader in a certain direction. Since each of us has our own distinctive identity, we should all interpret a meaning that in in-sync with our unique experiences. Ultimately, The Last Generation encourages discussions on diversity, and appreciates a variance of thought.
