Touching upon a number of important social problems, such as-race, sex, sexuality, gender identity, rape, murder, incest, ritual human sacrifice, cannibalism, homelessness, unrequited love, sex out of wedlock, and polyandry, Victimology, and the callous indifference to it, the woke, the Wokentots, and the "dirtheads" of the New World Order-Edward H. Campbell delivers a pithy, timely, and thought provoking commentary on contemporary social praxis. In Charleen der Sache a homeless wanderer, Magin Bones, lands a job on Schiphird Ranch and while bonding with his new mount, tells her the legend of the infamous wild horse Equus Sed-famed for defending his master against a grizzly bear attack, and becomes infamous for attacking the "dirtheads" that released predators into the wilderness. In Tuesdays Victim Campbell tells us about a professional Victimologist who becomes ensnared in a transnational criminal organization called the Tuesdays-which suborns its victims to it through cannibalism and ritual human sacrifice. In the Googolings, Campbell tells us how virtual reality bots, created by Artificial Intelligence committed reality fraud in Virtual Reality classrooms, obtained college degrees, published books, and set their sights on American citizenship. In Planet of the Wokentots, Edward H. Campbell brings the protagonists from these stories, and others, together in a university lecture hall to see a pessimistic lecture by one of their former teachers on the New World Order, and the futility of escape therefrom. Replete with absurd place names, such as-Hoppentown, Spralinsburg, and Stultish Street. And having obscure characters with only first names, or simply described as "a man in a brown suit with a fashionable tie." And having protagonist with sobriquets, such as "Old Jed" and "Break-off Junkie." The good guys find themselves faced off with larger than life transnational criminals called the "Tuesdays." Not published in the order that they were written, though the engine of intextus the work achieves an epic time frame. Thereby rendering the entire work into a novel, rather than a mere collection of stories. The work being interlaced both with quotations from celebrated authors, and with quotations from books-which do not exist-written by authors-who also do not exist, there is no reason for readers to prepare themselves for "the suspension of disbelief," for the author himself does not even pretend that these stories might be true. Edward H. Campbell is an independent scholar and a translator of ancient Greek and Latin texts. Steeped in the thought of the authors of the greatest written works of all time, well-read in Greek philosophy, learned Greco-Roman history, a master of rhetorical technique, Mr. Campbell is artful at spoudaiogelion. Standing on its own merits, this work is likely to become a classic in and of itself. He lives in Colorado. This is his first book.
