The Z Word is biting satire that skewers Corporate greed and phony promises they make to the queer community. Some may find this book too intense for where we are as a society but I believe that this scathing rebuke of rainbow capitalism arrived at exactly the right time. Reading this book gave me some much needed catharsis. We should be angry. It's time to stand up and fight. This book is a rallying cry.
