Soulless America At Your Service

Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2019

Verified Purchase

Life can actually be this beautiful thing. You can plant flowers in a pot, eat some perfectly cooked vegetables on a beautiful piece of pottery, live in a neighborhood with trees and a little creek if you want, and raise kids that will actually love you back. Hey, traipse through an obscure Mayan ruin in Guatemala, or listen to Vivaldi on your headphones instead of watching TV. Eat a tablespoon of real honey. Buy a Turkish bath towel. Order figs from Turkey.

Beauty—making life special—cultivating grace and appreciation for little things... well, that’s all a choice. Which is why I only read half of this book. If I want to be a voyeur to the lives of people who are made soulless by cultural decay, I’ll just go to Walmart. Or a Hollywood movie. Or hang out at a pharmacy and watch the throngs of people in line for their lobotomy.

The worse the world gets, the harder I try to live in some sort of state of grace. I take walks where it’s green. I seek out good people, good books, good food.

You get one frigging life. It’s up to you what you fill it with. So frigging fill it with beautiful things. And a book by a guy named Delicious Taco that wants to show you a slice of life lived by the desperate, soulless bots in our society doesn’t cut it for me.

Taco isn’t making the world a better place. He’s just showing us how awful it is. Reading his book is like taking a walk in a cheap furniture store, standing in line at a crappy neighborhood carnival, or looking at TV dinners in the freezer section. You don’t have to do any of it if you don’t want to, if it doesn’t enhance your life somehow.

Half way through, I’m like... I don’t care what this jerk of a character wants to do, who he wants to screw. I don’t have to read about his emptiness, his vacant life. . I’m going to go study Spanish instead, or go to the freaking art museum. Or weave a frigging basket. Or watch the clouds in the sky. Or go buy some flowers.

Thanks, Taco, but no thanks.

Go read some Pat Conroy or something. Or some poetry.

Search For Great American Novel Is Over

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2019

Verified Purchase

Have you ever wanted a major cataclysmic event to level a world filled with vapid talk shows, mundane office decisions and a world that relentlessly deceives and conspires to get you to buy things... and then pay for the privilege with every waking hour of your life owned by some guy with fake hair that wants you to "synergize" more? Well, I got a book for you to read.

This book is a more than a mere novel, or story about two lovers. It is a vivisection of our bloated unnatural modern civilization and an indictment of our bullshit advertising oriented society. If you have read his blog you have an idea of the way he writes, his sharp prose. If not, you are going to read the work of a man who makes everyone around him on the bookshelf seem safe and indulgent. I recommend him to young people especially.
The writing is well paced, you will read in one sitting if youre not retarded or a foreigner. I could not put it down. Honest to God how many books can you really apply that cliche towards?

The reason for the headline is because every person bandies about the great American novel... Well guess what, we dont' have a long enough history, no singular ethos or unified people that produce a singular national story, ergo no great example of that. Closest is the Western frontier but that is more of a mythology not the releatable reality of most people. But DeliciousTacos has recognized what our story is, and has written it's opus. DT recognizes that Corporate America is the tit from which the milk of modernist misery and mindless human soul devouring flows. No matter who you are, you define yourself by your relation to money, work and the whims of the machine of the modern economy. Even people who promise you an ecape are SELLING it to you. THAT is our story, and this is our novel.

A piece of fiction that will define writing for a generation

Finally, Some Good News by Delicious Tacos

Delicious Tacos is arguably the most important American intellectual alive: He’s the most gifted novelist since Gore Vidal; the most acidic satirist and cultural critic since H. L. Mencken; America’s poor, unfortunate and late answer to Michel Houellebecq and the most accomplished ornithologist since Arthur Cleveland Bent.
A prolific blogger and a serious and committed Twitter® personality with a taste for high protein barely cooked red meats, and sweet and warm Asian and Mexican barely legal pussy; his intellectual stature is only matched by his physical beauty, exposed through his beautiful, masculine body, typical of a Greek god.
This time Tacos delivers his latest piece, his very much expected, ground-breaking novel ‘Finally, Some Good News’ -a work of fiction that will define writing for a whole generation.
Here, Tacos pictures a dystopian world where men and women are rounded and lead like a herd by a Satanic all powerful, omnipresent force -Corporate America. This amorphous evil entity is so pervasive and mighty that always gets its way to get the common folks to willing fully and happily enslave themselves in inconsequential jobs, so they can engage in compulsive consumerism. A force that provides circus to the masses in the form of tasteless TV shows. A force that convinces both sexes to hate each other, where masculine virtues must be denigrated and banned, while female essence is to be corrupted as soon as possible. A force that gets people to believe that the arid, soulless, crime infected urban scenarios are worth it to live in, no matter if that means de drowned in unpayable debts until the day you die. Under such amount of hopeless insanity, nuclear annihilation of society looks like the only rational thing to do. Humans then will enjoy real freedom again, even if this comes with a heavy price tag to pay for in the form of fighting feral gangs roaming among the carcass of civilization to robe, rape and kill for a piece of food; cannibalizing the flesh of an undesired newborn, having to live among high radiation nuclear waste everywhere; or having to deal with flocks of feral intrusive bird species which no longer fear humans.
While the topic of the cataclysmic collapse of a modern society is not new in fiction, Tacos develops on this topic with a new metric, not just his personal style. If you expect to find the same kind of writing he creates in his previous book, ‘The Pussy’, you will be disappointed. This novel is clean, lean and tight. The characters are completely anonymous, their names are barely mentioned… You even forget them. The story moves forward with rich short paragraphs. The dialogue is minimum and spaced, every line of it takes a paragraph, in some way it works like a paradoxical lock to the story developed in the previous paragraph. It seems as if Tacos was writing this novel from ‘The Cloud’. Taking pieces here and there and then letting the reader to do the job of filling up spaces and connecting dots. Is Tacos the first novelist of The Cloud? How far are we from having him writing the first Twitter-format novel? Yes, the whole thing reads like a thunder, actually you will be able to read it in one sitting, maybe while you are waiting for your next flight before being raped by a TSA agent who believes you are an ISIS suspect, or while you do your laundry or maybe while you browse a sugar daddy site expecting for replies from the girls you contacted. However, you will read the book again, since you will get the feeling that you understand everything and nothing. That’s the challenge!
If Tacos is not presented the National Book Award, the World is retarded!

My all time favourite novel

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 10, 2019

Verified Purchase

Confession...this book gave me an earth-shattering Tacogasm and I am feeling a bit spent and vulnerable at the moment, so please bear with me. You see, I decided I wanted to get more literated by reading the "classicals" in between my steady flow of science fiction, mystery and horror. The question was where to begin.

So needless to say I went into this thinking I might hate it. Well, for the 999,987th time in my life (at least according to my wife’s records)...I was wrong!!! I absolutely loved this book and had a mammoth, raging heart-on for it from the opening scene. I literaphorically could not get enough of this story. I was instantly captivated by the characters and the main protagonist, immediately became one of my all time favorite characters.

Overall, the writing could not have been better. It was descriptive, lush and brilliant. The story could not have been more engaging or intelligent and the characters could not have been more magnificentastic.

This one has made it onto my list of All Time Favorite novels and is truly one of the classics that lives up to its billing. A FINAL WORD TO THE LADIES: ... Ladies, do not fear the Tacos...embrace the Tacos...

In conclusion 5 stars.

I purchased this book after listening to the author on the tek wars podcast and I'm so glad I did. Its a great little read and well worth the money.
I wouldn't recommend it to those who are easily offended. I'm pretty sure the guy who left a negative review cried :(

Delicious Tacos is the best writer of our generation

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 9, 2018

Gritty, often uncomfortable, yet strangely familiar to our everyday lives. "Finally, Some Good News" proves Delicious Tacos is as much of a master with novel-writing as he is at his renown short pieces

Toxic

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 26, 2019

Recommended by a friend but ended up in the dustbin after I finished it. A middle aged single porn addict / sex tourist in an awful job, with no clean shirts and no interests. As he can't get a hot young girlfriend for free, clearly there must be something wrong with the modern world? I failed to see the point.

Great stuff

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 28, 2020

Took a glass of wine last night and thought I might fall asleep reading this. Couldn't stop until I finished it, both the book and the bottle. This is Houellebecq on a higher dose of porn, video games and ADHD. Very direct, squalid, sad and kinky, inner world of an honest man who just wants love, sex and the end of this fake modern office world. Highly recommended.
