The Nudity of Absence (To the Idol Worshippers)
A collection of apocalyptic essays on the state of the planet, The Nudity of Absence constitutes an attempt to ontologically grasp the full extent of the ecological catastrophe humanity has manouvered itself into. From exploding rockets to landslides, this work enumerates the many ways in which the planet we have hitherto called home is caving in upon us. While proponents of what the Author calls "positive thinking" attempt to find active solutions, The Nudity of Absence follows a different path. Instead of action, Lovasz recommends that we reject any further action. When the will abates, the way is opened to acceptance and tolerance for reality the way it is. Rather than rage about how reality has fallen short of expectations, we must embrace the abyss that our own futural extinction poses.
