With Holy Lacrimony, Michael DeForge puts a whole new spin on the alien abduction tale. For the alien abductors that fill its pages, celebrity is dependent on and proportional to, sadness. In the process of revealing the tangled connections and describing the elaborate process by which sadness converts to celebrity, DeForge provides readers with an insightful commentary, in a unique manner and from an unusual perspective, on the impact of social media on emotional health and lives. An intriguing proposition well worth pondering.
