“A Plague of Rains Enshrouds the People” from the New Novel at Bomb

The awesome editors at Bomblog’s Word Choice selected one of the 7 plague chapters from the forthcoming novel, which we think, finally has a title: IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE END. So excited about that.

Here’s a little screenshot, including one of my paintings from a little while back:

And the sweet writeup that precedes the piece:

In this allegory to quiet allegory, a citizenry stands in thrall to the fickle flux of dearth and excess, and the promise of new knowledge reveals but a revived status quo.

And a link to the actual piece, which was published Friday, August 19, 2011.
