Interview on Fear No Evil podcast

Emanuel Pastreich of the Center for Truth Politics interviews V. N. Alexander about her 9/11 novel, Locus Amoenus on Fear No Evil podcast.

“A modern Hamlet sleepwalking through 9/11 and his awakening, our psychological and spiritual trauma, and the role of literature” -Emanuel Pastreich

Culture can be weaponized against us

VN Alexander talks with Brad Miller about how the official 9/11 narrative needs to be replaced.  See full interview.

Miller is a former military officer, who resigned due to unlawful Covid mandates. He is now teaching a course, “Literature as Resistance,” at IPAK-EDU.org.

 

TrineDay to publish Orwell 2020

V. N. Alexander’s political dark comedy Orwell 2020 will be released Winter 2025.

The novel is a retelling of Orwell’s story of totalitarian oppression as was seen with the lockdown and the vaccine roll out. Orwell 2020 sets out to find a happy ending, unlike Nineteen Eighty-Four, which starts low and descends even lower, with the hero Winston giving in to Doublethink. In Alexander’s version, Winston does not accept Big Pharma into his heart and he is not shot through the head in the end.

TrineDay is a small publishing house that arose as a response to the consistent refusal of the corporate press to publish many interesting, well-researched and well-written books with but one key “defect”: a challenge to official history that would tend to rock the boat of America’s corporate “culture.” TrineDay believes in our Constitution and our common right of Free Speech.

Known for publishing political history books, for example Whitney Webb’s One Nation Under Blackmail, TrineDay is launching a fiction division this fall.

Shannon Joy covered my work critiquing transhumanism

I write a substack called The Posthumous Style critiquing AI and transhumanism hype. This past month, my stack went viral.  (All that hate for Elon did it.) Yesterday, Shannon Joy covered my critique on her show. Have a look starting at about 48:00.

I have written/lectured quite a bit about transhumanism.  That topic is also part of my yet-unpublished novel, C0ViD-1984, The Musical, wherein I include a parody of Klaus Schwab’s book, The Fourth Industrial Revolution, just as George Orwell included a mock version of John Burnham’s work The Managerial Revolution. (Burnham was Kissinger’s mentor and Kissinger was Schwab’s mentor.)

There is an effort underway to make the world into Orwell’s novel, finally.  An updated version of that story would really help sort our understanding of what’s going on.
