Join Transom Bookshop at Irvington Theater on September 30, 2025, for a reading and discussion
with poet, novelist and essayist Paul Kingsnorth, celebrating the publication of his latest book.

Against the Machine

A wholly original—and terrifying—account of the technological-cultural matrix enveloping all of us. With masterful insight into the spiritual and economic roots of techno-capitalism, Kingsnorth reveals how the Machine, in the name of progress, has choked Western civilization, is destroying the Earth itself, and is reshaping us in its image.

On the Unmaking of Humanity
