"Tobias Ryan wants to gross you out, at least a little bit. In his novel, GLANTZ, recently published by Equus Press, the eponymous character roams the city, fascinating and disgusting the people that encounter him. ‘You prey on people’, Glantz’s sister says to him. Sometimes, the reader feels like another of his victims. Ryan is explicit about his desire to unsettle his readers."

Another recent title just made available via Barnes & Noble is Michael Rowland's THE UNNAMEABLE OBJECT, "an epic experiment in collective memory and literary excess which assembles fragments of memoir, fiction, satire, and hallucination into a polyphonic chronicle of Prague’s literary underground."

"A work of fiction that refuses to perpetuate the illusion of coherence, confronting the reader instead with the broken totality of a life lived on the edge of destruction.”

👉🏻Does anyone have a theory, reference, or educated hunch as to the origin of the title of Louis Armand's A TOMB IN H-SECTION (2025)?

Medical ward? Prison block? Holocaust archive shorthand? Geological stratum? Or is it simply the most aggressively bureaucratic way of naming a grave?

Genuinely curious whether this is a traceable reference, a private code, or one of those titles that looks like it comes from somewhere very specific and probably doesn’t — except atmospherically, psychologically, metaphysically.

Speculation, citations, wild guesses welcome.

Happy publication day to Louis Armand's LUNGFISH, a multi-media work of docufiction, weaving myth, memory & true crime into a sprawling narrative of Australia & its shadows.

Hailed by Glendyn Ivin as "a stream of conscience machine-gun fever dream" & by Wayne Bradshaw as "Necromodernist travel writing from another dimension,” LUNGFISH fuses a nation’s myth, personal memory & true crime into a volatile multimedia text of radical anticolonialism.

Forthcoming in just under 2 weeks (26 Jan):

LUNGFISH is a late-80s phantasmagoria set in a rural Australian town, trailing a pack of whacked-out kids & a battered 1971 VH Valiant Ranger as it tears through heat, dust, riverbeds, & bad history. What starts as adolescent misadventure mutates fast into something darker, stranger, far less containable. Louis Armand fuses a nation's myth, personal memory, & true crime into a volatile work of docufiction, where childhood scenes bleed into archives & black-site geopolitics intrudes on the everyday. History here doesn't just settle for haunting from a distance, it occupies, surveils, disciplines. LUNGFISH holds Australia open, exposing storytelling itself as a contested terrain shaped by erasure & violence, all the while refusing to forget.

"Dense, playful writing that boldly & unapologetically experiments with form & tone. Louis Armand’s Lungfish is a stream of conscience machine gun fever dream that feels strangely familiar, but also like no place I've ever been."
--Glendyn Ivin

"Taken together, these works demonstrate that necromodernism is not so much a movement as a contagion, not so much a style as a condition of writing. In Armand’s writing, literature persists only by metabolizing its own cadaver, surviving in ruins, endlessly looping through its own exhaustion, and his Golemgrad stands as necromodernism’s most monumental instantiation: a city of the dead, built from the ruins of literature, where writing persists not despite collapse but through it."
