ITEM OVERVIEW
Jensen takes no prisoners in this brilliant and eagerly awaited follow up to his powerful and lyrical A Language Older Than Words. Exploring the lines of thought and experience that connect the atrocities of our culture throughout history, Jensen leads us on an extraordinary journey from early 20th century lynchings in the United States to today's death squads in South America. As impeccably researched as it is moving, with conclusions as far-reaching as they are shocking, what begins as an attempt to reconsider the nature of hatred soon explodes into a reckoning with the very heart of Western civilization.
