The Unabomber's New Book


It's a bit discouraging when my writing can't find a publisher but a homegrown terrorist...in prison, can. Wo, is me. The news, care of Peninsula Daily News, is that Ted Kaczynski has a new book out.

From the article...

The Unabomber -- who argued that technology is at fault for society's current problems and pockmarked his argument with bombings for nearly two decades -- has published a book through a small Port Townsend publisher.

But his publisher is short of the accolades book publishers usually place on their authors.

"He is a murderer, and he is a sociopath," said Adam Parfrey, who published Technological Slavery by the now-imprisoned Theodore J. Kaczynski.

But Parfrey said in an interview Monday that Kaczynski "is also provocative and intelligent.

"He is a genius and a very good writer who can add to the discussion about technology," said Parfrey.
