Humanity Is the Devil
A surreal novel about killing to defeat a false god
Krall constructs a narrative where language fractures into cut-scenes rather than flowing logically. Seth leads his cronies in violent acts intended to hasten the apocalypse. They believe this violence will challenge the Demiurge, who controls earthly existence. The story draws on gnostic traditions by framing humanity as inherently evil. It critiques established moral frameworks through its extreme content. The approach mirrors Burroughs in its rejection of standard syntax. Readers encounter a world where comfort is stripped away. The text forces confrontation with uncomfortable truths about belief systems. It does not offer redemption or clear answers. Instead, it presents a raw examination of existential dread and religious skepticism.
