We are shocked and awed to announce the publication of Sick: A Disturbing Dictionary for Turbulent Times written by Isaac Cronin and Elizabeth Riley with illustrations by Rohitash. Sick is a 110 page full color paperback published in a 10” by 10” format with fifty definitions and illustrations.

The definitions are drawn from the movement against the commodification of daily life, CoronaVirus pandemic vocabulary and terms that address the apocalyptic crisis in disease and medicine. Rao’s illustrations are barbed counterpoints created in styles ranging from surreal to accusatory to disturbing.

The Sick Bureau is a federation of individuals who are helping sink the imperial ship of routine, narcissism, sadism and obsequiousness. Against this foundering hulk we are aiming the weapons of spontaneity, stabbing humor and surprise. Words are captive like we are and we strive to set them free.
