Black PatrickBlack Patrick is a Los Angeles-based novelist, essayist, and unapologetic truth-teller whose work fuses the rebellion of punk rock with the precision of a marksman. Over fifteen books, he has carved out a reputation for turning cultural decay into ra, electric literature.A self-described social arsonist, Patrick writes from the fault line between fury and hope, dissecting modern America with brutal honesty and black humor. His prose reads like prophecy from a whiskey-soaked preacher-equal parts heartbreak, philosophy, and stand-up apocalypse.Manifesto of a Madman is his fifteenth and most explosive book to date: part confession, part warning, and all truth. Beneath the fire and profanity lies an unshakable belief that honesty-however brutal-is the last form of love left.When he isn't writing, Patrick can be found somewhere in Los Angeles, listening to Motörhead, arguing with ghosts, and plotting his next literary detonation.
