On Becoming Yesterday's Actors

Bag om On Becoming Yesterday's Actors

With his evocative, stylized prose, apocalyptic intensity, and apparent boundless imagination, Tennison Long's fourth and final novel, On Becoming Yesterday's Actors, suggests a scanning of the narrator's mind, a Luddite Gen Xer who sifts through life via varying digressions, while encompassing the differences of more recent generations through a documentarian interspersing of news articles, psycho analysis, historical documents, and observations of his own private surroundings. Under the threat of his child's abduction, along with a mysterious serial killer spree connection, and the disappearance of a local newscaster, this post-modern meta-manifesto is a second half of life analog to digital coming of age story, chronicled within the ambient noise of a turbulent arrival to the gates of an ever-louder and unrelenting tomorrow.
