It's big, hot, often painful, and a hard place to get creative projects done. But something else is bothering inmate PKRx354--something beyond the unrelenting and often absurd torture routines, the demons, or the tormenting trio of his mother, father, and girlfriend also consigned to the Underworld. Luckily there's help: Fred Greenberg--Hell's only psychotherapist. With Fred's stoic and perceptive guidance, the \"talking cure\" proves productive. That is until a dastardly terrorist act by a mysterious faction threatens the very nature of the Underworld. Will our self-deprecating hero get to the cause of his nagging \"ennui?\" Will Fred find his own redemption? And will our hero ever find peace, or at least a vacation?Combining Dante, Douglas Adams, and Freud, \u003ci\u003e Damnation Diaries \u003c\/i\u003eis equal parts horror comedy and character-driven drama, uniquely converging the look of bronze-age comics with sharp literary satire. The book's imaginative and surreal landscape serves as a perfect backdrop for caustic social commentary fit for our equally surreal times. The setting may be imaginary, but the urgent issues addressed are not: growing economic inequality, student debt, political crisis, terrorism, and the attempt to find peace under the most hostile of circumstances.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Uncivilized Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/23\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781941250549\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144","brand":"Peter Rostovsky","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42786610479285,"sku":"9781941250549","price":21.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_83de158b-fd6e-4b98-ae3a-91c774f82e4b.jpg?v=1680016470","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/damnation-diaries-9781941250549","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
