Reading M. Archive was difficult. I think that the messages were interesting and very topical. I however found it hard to read with phrasing such as "more better" and every time "I" is used it was lower-case. All sentences started with lower-case letters and what I think were page numbers were randomly strewn throughout. I don't know if this was because I downloaded the Kindle version, but it was deeply distracting from the overall intent and message of the work. I think that the overall message was probably with the intent to empower, shock, cause heads to nod along with statements that are closely related to the world we live in today. I thought that the idea of water being the new idea of commerce and the apocalypse brought upon man by man were really fascinating concepts that are very close to reality. It was hard to follow as a story, since it is written in a prose fashion and does not use names or many concrete identifying pronouns. I did not read the book that came prior, so I don't know if that would have changed my experience. I think had there been a more concrete expression of a story line or maybe in print it is displayed differently and might be better. I don't mean to be so heavily critical, but I think with some more editing and formatting this could be much better.

A collective of human experiences that almost transcends words. What might sound incoherent or at times, twisted, echoes the beauty and hideousness of existence.

a challenging work that's at once prose poetry and speculative (non)fiction
