All Hopped Up on Fleshy Dum Dums by Lara Glenum [Hardcover]

---

Product Overview

If the AMC TV series The Walkers were shot in the nude in a rural titty bar cum abbatoir courtroom co-run by Georges Bataille and George Romero, even then, our executive breeder (re)producers wouldn’t have been able to imagine the per-verse porcine pleasures inherent to Lara Glenum’s zombie porn onslaught to cum: “On the ground below / ‘munchers & bleeders arrived by the thousands’ / & flung bloody fetus-dolls / at the hotling’s        ‘star-crusted entourage’ // Someone planted a dripping black root // in the hotling’s ‘eyeless socket’ / & the sky spooged // the asshole sun / shat out ‘luxe light’”—all of it mirroring back our culture’s media-marinated priggy piggishness. Don’t get her wrong when the fun’s just getting started: “‘I want to smash up / your boo jank!’ / I begged // ‘I want to chip my teeth // on your nob / & nob gobble // until I bust a chunky!’” Never did oral congress leave a taste as shockingly delicious as this. LARA GLENUM is the author of Pop Corpse, Maximum Gaga, and The Hounds of No, all from Action Books. She is also the co-editor of Gurlesque: the new grrly, grotesque, burlesque poetics, with Arielle Greenberg. She teaches in the MFA program at LSU.
