Mini-Review: The Unwords


The Unwords by Unauthor
Published: January 18th 2012
Publisher: the author
Page Count: 90

Synopsis: "There is nothing more dangerous...than a character with no author."
With the use of an unusual, modern poetic verse and enhanced with provocative, artistic imagery, The Unwords take full advantage of their author's lack of identity and almost inhuman levels of introspection, as they set out to inform, to educate, to criticise and hopefully inspire, by pushing the reader out of his comfort zone and into a world in which so many things have already been left undone...but nothing will be left unsaid. Psychology, poetry, philosophy, linguistics and social sciences blend together with the arts, as the author partners the reader through a disturbing, thought-provoking journey in which education, relationships, religion, politics and social behaviour are stripped down to their bare foundations and de-constructed through the eyes of a man who has no name, no face, nothing to gain...therefore no reason to lie.

Review: 
I just...
can't deal...
with such a large...
amount of... 
ellipses... 

I think I adored...
the compositions...
of the pages...
much more... 
than the poems... 
themselves... 

However... 
I did particularly enjoy...
the first part of the book...
and the third...
the second part was a little less... 
enjoyable... 
for myself. 

3 / 5 stars
