The Silicon Stone Age

By Sean Lawlor Nelson

Sean Lawlor Nelson's bold new literary monster ranges in form from haiku to short story to dream journal, and in subject matter from tennis to Chinese poet Li Bai, to underground music legend Elliott Smith, to video-gaming, to John Lennon's borderless nation of Nutopia. Especially compelling pieces include "sushi bar haiku set," "ode to Novak Djokovic," "the dishes must be washed," "shooting up silicon," and "ode to The Republic of Estonia." This collection includes previously unpublished material from past phases of Nelson's diverse life, from high school student to college Shakespearean, through a Thai professorship, to stints in psychiatric units. But the core of the book is recent writing from one of planet earth's most unique and relentless minds. If you liked "An Ode to Id" and "Weird Voyage Loveward," you might also possibly enjoy: "The Silicon Stone Age."
