Scream by Michael J. Seidlinger
"Object Lessons is a wonderful, original and eye-opening series. The author couldn’t talk until he was older and has issues speaking in public, so he really appreciates the value of screams. From horror movies to rollercoasters, this book analyzes why" Read more of this review »

“After all the talk about the end of the world the irony was that it actually happened.”
Michael J. Seidlinger, The Sky Conducting

“The demons exist. If they don’t find you, you create your own. Fear is there. It never fades. But know that you never have to be alone. Never doubt yourself, just because everyone else doesn’t understand. There’s an entire kingdom out there. Hold on to that image. Be”
Michael J. Seidlinger, Falter Kingdom

“broken.”

“There are two kinds of people, those who like to sleep next to the wall, and those who like to sleep next to the people who push them off the bed.”
Etgar Keret, The Bus Driver Who Wanted to be God and Other Stories

“According to Gur's theory of boredom, everything that happens in the world today is because of boredom: love, war, inventions, fake fireplaces - ninety-five percent of all that is pure boredom.”
Etgar Keret, The Nimrod Flipout

“After all the talk about the end of the world the irony was that it actually happened.”
Michael J. Seidlinger, The Sky Conducting

“When a person screams in pain, the actual pain is only half the noise they make. The other half is the terror at being forced to accept that they exist.”
Noah Cicero, The Condemned

“When I started writing
I was a sick teenaged
fuck inside who partly
thought I was the new
Marquis de Sade, a body
doomed to communicate
with Satan who was us-
ing my sickness as his
home away from home,
and there’s your proof.”
Dennis Cooper
