The Unwords: Exposing the Dishonest Language of a Culture in Decline Revised edition

A nameless character. A faceless figure. A disturbing, thought-provoking journey through the facts of the world we live in that we often refuse to acknowledge.

By taking full advantage of their author's lack of identity and extreme levels of introspection, The Unwords cut straight through the pretenses and the fallacies in our language as they unleash a full scale attack on all fronts of cultural and social decay.The Unwords were written by an anonymous author. It is the only book in the modern market that has neither an author's name nor a publisher's name on its front and back cover. Only the title is present. In 2012, the first edition of The Unwords became a Goodreads Choice Award Finalist, the first ever book to be nominated in the history of Goodreads that didn't have an identifiable author.

Written in fluent poetic verse which expands into full-page, full color illustrations that carry the theme into artistic territory, 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 book is characterized by the author's brutal honesty when dealing with personal issues concerning relationships, social behavior and his family. It is also unforgiving and relentless when it approaches matters of poverty, corruption, home-ownership, religion and healthcare. The extensive use of artistic visuals by the author in combination with poetic verse results in a very inventive and original structure, while its linguistic and philosophical approach to various contemporary social and psychological issues rightfully labels the book as a work of nonfiction and social sciences; two genres rarely associated with neither poetry nor graphic novels.

Words are meant to be spoken. In a dishonest world, what remains unspoken can only be the truth. In a dishonest world... all words can go to hell!
