The Gizmo

"One of the drollest and most inspired creations of Tito Perdue's imagination is the 'escrubilator,' a piece of technology whose multifarious features and functions make it as impossible for the reader to visualize as Gogol's nose that abandoned its owner and left town disguised as a civil servant. Tito Perdue's nineteenth novel, The Gizmo, tells the story of how a small group of misanthropic, septuagenarian geniuses created the escrubilator to escrubilate the whole modern world. But, like all technologies, this one seems to have escaped the control of its creators."-Greg Johnson, author of Toward a New Nationalism
