About this product

Product Information

There are zombies among us! From the rotting hordes of TV's The Walking Dead to the blockbuster nightmare of 28 Days Later, our popular culture is overrun with the ravenous undead. But where do these strange creatures come from? In this fascinating book, artist and writer John Cussans tracks the zombie from Hollywood back to its origins in the voodoo folklore of Haiti. At once a visceral analysis of dubious racial myth, pop-cultural history and philosophical provocation, Undead Uprising asks how voodoo possession and zombie labourers have come to mould Haiti's fascinating national identity.
