Book Club from Heaven - Incel w/ ARX-Han

Book Club from Hell

Jack talks to ARX-Han, author of Incel (2023), about the process of writing Incel, as well as the thought behind it.

Rather than sum up Incel myself, I'll quote ARX-Han:
"Savage, hilarious, and everything in between , INCEL is a pitch-dark comedy about one man's harrowing quest to ascend.

Suicidally depressed, twenty-two year old anon has settled on a if he can't find a way to lose his virginity by the date of his next birthday, he’s going to pick a fight with the biggest, baddest man he can find, and get himself killed.

For anon, social alienation is a simple matter of unvarnished America in the year 2012 is a brutal Darwinian hellscape where every man is engaged in a ruthless competition for access to attractive females-and losers like him are left to rot.

As he begins his first year of graduate studies in evolutionary psychology, the looming threat of his personal deadline mutates into a totalizing obsession to validate his theories and achieve sex for the first time. Convinced that he's discovered a special method for "hacking" the mating patterns in human behavior, he starts upon a path that only threatens to further destabilize his already fragile psyche, hurtling him toward a crucible of his own design."
