about

Mezzula kept hearing her voice again, from the day before, replaying in his head.
“It’s a wall … it’s a fuckeeng wall … To keep the—,”
Professor Maritz had reprimanded Verviella for her use of language but she had inspired him. She had inspired him to write with some passion rather than his usual m.o. of dry reason. She had in fact inspired him, to summon up a word for it at least … to conjure up something that accurately described the malignancy behind that gnawing suffocating feeling of barely getting by, that had dogged his childhood years.

— from Chapter Two “Brain Circus”

lyrics

ZARGASTERLEY: And now for your final word Suriane to go through to the final … your word is Entrapocracy!
SURIANE: Could I have the definition please?
ZARGASTERELY: A system of governance by stealth whereby the governed are locked into an ongoing struggle to make ends meet, and are thus effectively entrapped into working against their own best interests … eg Annabel argued that Big Fossil Fuel operates as an entrapocracy, because in enforcing its monopoly on how the planet is powered, it coerces pretty much everyone else—and often very much against their own will— into roles that are contributing to the destruction of the earth’s life support systems.
SURIANE: Could I have the language of origin please?
ZARGASTERELY: A combination of the Middle French entrap and corruption of Greek dēmokratía.
SURIANE: … E-N-T-R-A … P-O-C …R-A-C …Y. Entrapocracy!
ZARGASTERLY: Absolutely right and Suriane you are through to the final
