Without the organization, Clarissa Knowles would have nowhere else to go. That is, unless she can make it to Dick’s house, the professor she’s been talking to online. Haunted by her failed relationship with Maurice (the existentialist), and the deaths of her parents, can Clarissa shake off the values of the organization, pack up her cat – and go?
The Organization is Here to Support You is an existential bureaucratic horror satire in the tradition of Franz Kafka, J.G. Ballard, and Sayaka Murata.
"A fascinating, sometimes dizzying look at the narratives we build out of other people and what they build upon us. Sometimes you have to revel in the obsessive weirdness of the world. Elsby turns the skull into a cubicle for the mind."
- Hailey Piper, author of A Game in Yellow
"Pitch black humor meets the existential dread of contemporary corporate culture in this tour de force from Elsby. Surreal, hilarious, and heartbreaking all at once, you’ll keep going despite the pain, like a cancer-ridden lung wheezing out another smoky laugh. A must-read if you’ve ever been ensnared in bureaucratic hell."
- Emma E. Murray, author of Crushing Snails
