LOVE IS A THREAT, NOT IN ITS IDEALISM, BUT IN ITS REFUSAL TO FAIL TO EXIST

Ten years after the publication of Wastoid, Mathias Svalina returns to Big Lucks Books. In his eighth full-length title, Svalina tackles loss, grief, depression, and survival with a tenderness so apt that it demands its reader to look inward: at their relationship with love, with sadness, with friendship, and with themselves. As courageous as it is confessional, Thank You Terror holds the world close and encourages it to listen.
