Serious Feather Arts with Brett GregoryInterview: Bram E. Gieben discusses his new book 'The Darkest Timeline'By turns a work of savage polemic, speculative philosophical reasoning and outsider insight, The Darkest Timeline is a dynamic ride through critical theory, pop culture and high-concept fiction.
