This work is a southern memoir. What that means is that this work is, by definition made up almost but not quite entirely of suspiciously unverified events. It features somewhat exaggerated drama and some very questionable characters. (For the record, I have never actually met Elvis.)This memoir is a roux made of equal parts fact and fiction liberally seasoned with healthy measures of exaggeration, fabrication, and a few outright lies. The story is set in Jonesboro Arkansas and the Mid-South during the years following the devastating tornado that sturck Jonesboro in May of 1973. This story takes poetic license to an absurd, almost criminal extreme. In keeping with the greatest of southern traditions, the Author has never been one to let the truth get in the way of a good story.

Apophenia presents Hank Kirton's collection of twisted nihilistic fables for the post-capitalist world. Welcome To The Membranous Lounge! Where ugliness and beauty melt and run together, where reality is temperamental and the boundary between "normal" and grotesque is nebulous. The Membranous Lounge is a zone of slippage, a twilight area between the layers of the world that are familiar and the terrifyingly unknown. It is a chimerical realm inhabited by the hopeless, dispossessed, and those who have simply turned away. Imagine if Ray Bradbury and Jeri Cain Rossi had a child that they locked away from the world, with only the Marquis De Sade for reading matter, and a dietary intake of bad LSD and atrocious B Movies. The Membranous Lounge would be the spawn of that child's imagination. With an introduction by Jim Rose of the Jim Rose Circus.
