The Book of Revelation serves as a lonely planet guide to this outrageous place in time. Rob A. Mackenzie's apocalyptic nightmare vision encompasses the rags of Empire, political turpitude and blindingly oppressive headlines in a grimly comic phantasmagoria of twenty-first century turmoil.
Opposites collide in this poetry collection, exploring themes of reality versus delusion, political activism against apathy, and the contrasts between friends and enemies. The poems challenge conventions with unsettling imagery and a blend of irony and humor. Engaging and complex, this work invites readers to confront the dramatic tensions in life and death, making it an essential addition to any poetry lover's collection.
Rob A. Mackenzie's new collection, Woof! Woof! Woof!, offers biting satire and sweeping social commentary ranging from the murk of political engagement in an age of offence sensibility, to the bleached-out culture of munificent late- capitalism.
