  • The Infected Desert
    Harold Jaffe
    Harold Jaffe was among the most admired and versatile writers in the US for several decades, having written fiction, non-fiction, 'docufiction,' drama, and now, in The Infected Desert, what he called documentary poems. His subject is the Israeli war on the Palestinians which Jaffe addresses both through brief, tensely discerning free verse poems and actual documents which he re...

  • Kafka Kafka
    Harold Jaffe
    Harold Jaffe is a master of the disembodied voice. These fictions-transgressive, political, dryly comic-are grounded in an ancient tradition, that of the speech of the storyteller. Interlocutors talk as if out of dark caves, and the result is a marvel of conversation that takes the reader to places somehow beyond the 'real world,' only to comment, often searingly, upon its absu...

  • Single-Sentence Stories
    Harold Jaffe / Tom Whalen

He has been recognized for pinpointing and even aestheticizing the media pathology that informs and increasingly determines our daily lives. In BRUT, Jaffe addresses an extraordinary range of films, writers, painters, philosophers, and “outsider”...

  • Revolutionary Brain
    Harold Jaffe
    In this timely collection of essays and 'quasi-essays,' acclaimed novelist and critic Harold Jaffe explores the intricate vicissitudes of millennial culture. Gesturing, in a philosophical shorthand, toward a kind of pop Armageddon, Revolutionary Brain is at once thesis, allegory, and surreal comedy, demonstrating just how far we, and the natural world we have debased, have fall...

  • Anti-Twitter
    Harold Jaffe
    These 50-word stories are based on 'found' texts from mainstream news sources and other public sites. Jaffe sculpts them to reveal their inner core, all niceties stripped away. Now the true motives, fears and sins of our age are on display for all who care to see. Amidst an internet-driven content boom, meaning has virtually disappeared. ANTI-TWITTER’s extreme brevity demonstra...

  • Terror-Dot-Gov
    Harold Jaffe
    As in Harold Jaffe’s two previous 'docufiction' collections, False Positive and 15 Serial Killers, the author of Terror-Dot-Gov selects then 'treats' his texts such that the reader is incapable of distinguishing between fact and fiction. That ambiguity permits Jaffe to cunningly tease out the contradictions and subtexts of official 'news' or 'information' and torque it into wha...
