Book Club from Heaven - Incel w/ ARX-Han

from Book Club From Hell · host Levi MK and Jack BC

Jack talks to ARX-Han, author of Incel (2023), about the process of writing Incel, as well as the thought behind it. Rather than sum up Incel myself, I'll quote ARX-Han:"Savage, hilarious, and everything in between , INCEL is a pitch-dark comedy about one man's harrowing quest to ascend.Suicidally depressed, twenty-two year old anon has settled on a if he can't find a way to lose his virginity by the date of his next birthday, he’s going to pick a fight with the biggest, baddest man he can find, and get himself killed.For anon, social alienation is a simple matter of unvarnished America in the year 2012 is a brutal Darwinian hellscape where every man is engaged in a ruthless competition for access to attractive females-and losers like him are left to rot.As he begins his first year of graduate studies in evolutionary psychology, the looming threat of his personal deadline mutates into a totalizing obsession to validate his theories and achieve sex for the first time. Convinced that he's discovered a special method for "hacking" the mating patterns in human behavior, he starts upon a path that only threatens to further destabilize his already fragile psyche, hurtling him toward a crucible of his own design."VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATIONARX-Han's website: https://www.decentralizedfiction.com/Amazon page for Incel: https://www.amazon.com/INCEL-Novel-ARX-Han/dp/B0C9SNQK9CJack has published a novel!Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Tower-Jack-BC-ebook/dp/B0CM5P9N9M/ref=monarch_sidesheetApple Books: http://books.apple.com/us/book/id6466733671Our Patreon: www.patreon.com/TheBookClubfromHellJack's website: www.jackbc.meJack's Substack: jackbc.substack.comLevi's website: www.levioutloud.comwww.thebookclubfromhell.comJoin our Discord (the best place to interact with us): discord.gg/ZMtDJ9HscrWatch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0n7r1ZTpsUw5exoYxb4aKA/featuredX: @bookclubhell666Jack on X: @supersquat1Levi on X: @optimismleviBooks and Podcasts Recommended by ARX-HanMixtape Hyperborea by Adem Luz Rienspects Nutcrankr by Dan Baltic The Black Album by Matt Pegas Podcasts: Tooky's Mag (Tooky's Mag literary sidebar podcast) New WriteMagazines: The Mars Review of Books Articles: Asian American Psycho in Current Affairs by Christopher Jesu Lee Substacks Salieri's Redemption by Christopher Jesu Lee (literary crit) Political Currents by Ross Barkan (includes literary crit + politics as he's a journo and novelist)random book Why? by Philip Goff Atta by Jarrett Kobek (reviewed on Post Era)
