{ "item_title" : "The Destroyer", "item_author" : [" Andrew Mullenax "], "item_description" : "From Anxiety Press The Destroyer Vol. 1 is a raw, unflinching descent into love, addiction, and obsession. Through fragments of poems, lyrics, and confessions, Andrew Mullenax captures the wreckage of a life lived on the edge: haunted by fame, poisoned by desire, and driven by the need to turn suffering into art. Brutal and unashamed, this is the secret notebook of a songwriter in freefall, where every page is a confession and every song is a last rite. Behold the poetic testimony of a scrap heap messiah. Rabid, relentless, veering from profound to disgusting in the space of a few lines, armed with a sleepless pace that suggests it was either scribbled on a napkin in a bar or scratched into a prison cell wall, this is poetry cooked up on a spoon and fired into a weeping vein. There is no respite, no mercy, just the rush of words like an onslaught of blood.- Alex Sinclair, author of Dead Orchid This might be the most unrelenting poetry I have ever read. It's over 300 pages that evoke running through the mind of a young man having a very long series of frenzied episodes. Imagine if Hubert Selby Jr. (Requiem For A Dream, 1978) was a Gen Z poet. These poems create a lyrical mania that makes me want to know what the soundtrack to this collection is.- indie book blog", "item_img_path" : "https://covers4.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/826/868/9798268680119_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "20.00", "online_price" : "20.00", "our_price" : "20.00", "club_price" : "20.00", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
