Tiny Oblivions and Mutual Self Destructions weaves the anxious pall of cosmic dread with the bones of the bizarre and the strange into a new collection of weird poetry. From indescribable dimensions to the bleakest parts of our worst nightmares taking the reader back to the thrones of the Cyber Gods; the reader is transported.
This follow up to Gold's two-time Elgin-Award nominated prose poetry collection, Oblivion in Flux: A Collection of Cyber Prose, is composed of 50 prose poems that throw us into the mouth of dead stars, through old nameless cities, and down to the inward terrors we might dare to reveal to ourselves...
Good writing takes us out of ourselves for a few precious minutes; great horror writing makes us wonder if we can find a way back. Maxwell I. Gold is a great horror writer, and Tiny Oblivions and Mutual Self Destructions may have taken a part of me forever. Beautiful, horrifying, haunting, and utterly unique. - Six-time Bram Stoker Award winner Lisa Morton
Tiny Oblivions and Mutual Self Destructions is a brilliant collection of poems. Deeply insightful, beautiful, horrifying, and unflinching. Bravo! -Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of NecroTek and editor of Weird Tales Magazine
I always look forward to entering the otherworldly dimensions of Gold's imagination. In this book his songs of lost reality echo in twisted images, like shadowy dreams half remembered. The prose/poems morph on the page as they tell the story of humans and their deteriorating existence. I do not know this mutating universe, but the author's striking use of language effortlessly transported me there. My shadow enjoyed this haunting journey.-Linda D. Addison, award-winning author, HWA Lifetime Achievement Award recipient and SFPA Grand Master.
Maxwell Ian Gold does it again! A raw but exquisite collection of poems, Tiny Oblivions and Mutual Self Destructions, is Gold's best work yet. And considering his excellent body of work, that is saying a great deal. A true talent for writing, which leaps from the pages and grabs your attention to the end. -Cindy O'Quinn, Bram Stoker Award Winner
Tiny Oblivions is a devastatingly heartfelt poetry collection of the regret of the tortures of time, the anguish that arises with brutal memories, and the regret that lingers for pain inflicted we could not stop. Maxwell Ian Gold's gripping and poignant lyricism shimmers.-Cynthia Pelayo, Bram Stoker Award winning author of Crime Scene
