A long-form poem of negation and egoism, of scorn and cynical
delight.
Included is a URL for a free full audiobook read by Kevin I.
Slaughter.
Benjamin DeCasseres (is) the Pontius Pilate of America.
-H.L. Mencken
A passionate, erratic poet... strives to shake the foundation of
the world.
-The Saturday Review of Literature
He occupies a niche that is all his own and asks space to stand
for no other man .
-The Nation
DeCasseres is the most fiery and independent writer that I know
of.
-Remy de Gourmont
There is but one Benjamin DeCasseres. And he is perhaps the one
living wonder of the literary world. It is fortunate that such an
one must be born, that he cannot be made; especially that he cannot
be imitated, for if every one wrote like DeCasseres readers would
go mad. That he can keep in any semblance of thought-order such
whirls of words is something to marvel at. Yet to read him once,
twice, is to experience the greatest mental exhilaration.
