Having previously published flash fiction, short stories, poetry, humour, sci fi, horror, experimentalism, literary fiction, Philistine Press have a new genre to add to our ever-expanding list: the manifesto.
And what an astounding piece of work this manifesto is.
In the words of the anonymous authors:
"The world at it’s currently run relies on
the assumption that each and every member of the earth’s population believe in
three fundamental ideas: money, nationality and status. These three concepts
have one thing in common: they only exist in our imaginations. Not everyone
recognises these concepts as valid, but officially we all do.
As far as the media are concerned, the
non-existence of these three works of fiction is the greatest taboo of our time.
They’re taken for granted in the same way volcanoes are taken for granted.
They’re part of our world, and out of our control.
Now is the time for questions. Where did
these beliefs come from? Why are they here? And how do we get rid of them?"
