In Postmortem, Joseph Kurber's engaging first offering, we catch a rare glimpse into what it means to be consumed by a fascination. This is purgatory on earth; a world of questions where the answers are few and unsatisfactory. Follow Kurber's free verse spiral through self-worth as he peels back layers of distraction, distortion and pretension, to uncover what's below. Throughout the book, Kurber explores what all of us will face and few will venture to understand: the inevitable. The truths that we talk about, search for, and avoid will soon find us. With a compelling dichotomy of prose and poetry - normal and surreal, rational and illogical - Kurber fearlessly confronts infinity to discover what awaits him on the other side.
