Neurotic Vagrancy

By Zak Ferguson

"Zak Ferguson's Neurotic Vagrancy is not a novel to be read for plot or character but for intensity, rhythm, and the sheer audacity of its refusal. It extends the experimental traditions of Joyce, Beckett, and Bataille into a contemporary idiom shaped by neurodivergence, grotesque humour, and confessional excess. Its literary merit lies precisely in its refusal of decorum: in its insistence that literature can still wound, unsettle, and demand. In doing so, Ferguson achieves something rare. He produces a work that is not only about neurosis and vagrancy but itself enacts neurotic vagrancy as a mode of writing. To read this book is to become, if only temporarily, a vagrant in language: wandering, unsettled, restless. It is in its vagrant refusal of form and genre that Neurotic Vagrancy reclaims the avant-garde's central wager: that writing at its most neurotic and excessive may still offer an encounter with the unnameable, the uncontainable, the impossible."
