In anxiety and estrangement soon deepened by global pandemic, popular fascism, virtual being, intestinal distress, and the obscenity of his own privilege as a university pet, he retreated to the comforts of horror films with no intent but diversion. What happened instead was this reckless, unprecious, in-process reckoning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eBackdropped by sprawling cemeteries, soundtracked by too much Type O Negative, and totally hung up on cameras, \u003ci\u003eWith Bloom Upon Them and Also with Blood\u003c\/i\u003e is a chase and a trip where lyric essays, ekphrastic poetry, and lectures grapple with alienation, professional disillusionment, perversion, and internal contradiction under racial capitalism through playful and critical encounters with horror cinema and cultural iconography. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJustin Phillip Reed\u003c\/strong\u003e is an American writer and amateur bass guitarist.
