Synopsis

This is a re-issue of the 2003 collection from Daniel X. O'Neil. More than 20 years after its release, this prescient book shows the present moment in a fissured American political culture along with roadmaps to re-connecting it.

  • “Unclean Hands” exposes the mechanics of capitalism and the crushing automatic effects we witness in a connected gig economy
  • “Approaching Pittsburgh,” a found poem of the transcript from the final moments of a plane crash, is a text-based example of what happens when tragedies are repurposed everywhere and no content is off limits
  • “Mortgage Credit Explanation Letter” predates the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis and the rise of social media— nowhere to hide
  • Obitpoems are early experiments in hypertext enjambment, a method of infusing multiple meanings into a word or phrase
  • “Trut: The Star, The Globe, and the Missing H in the New Veracity," an essay originally published in Emigre Magazine a decade before truthiness, implicates all of us


Economics is a book based on the gargantuan fact that the world economy is so all-inclusive that it embraces good and evil equally. And no one can do good, like feed their children and clothe themselves and love one another, without somehow bowing down before the presence of evil. Economics is a book for people.
