Thompson and William Burroughs. Partly a stream of consciousness narrative and partly a morality tale for the end times, it's a signpost to the apocalypse of the nuclear imagination, the logical implosive endpoint of the Beatnik generation's experiment. Here lies the carcass of reality in all its rotting, putrid, and fully decomposed glory: it's what remains of the dreams of the Love Generation, laid bare for all to see.

We were marching together, and I saw that many of those behind us were sick, and struggling, and then I looked to the horizon and saw the mushroom cloud. I remember a wave of perfect horror and despair washing over me; the sure and certain knowledge that our march was doomed, as were we. The image didn't make it into the story, but the feeling did. King instructs us to write about what scares us. In The Finite, I wrote about the worst thing I can imagine; my own childhood nightmare, resurrected and visited on my kid." - Kit Power
