Opis

Though doting parents often teach their children the futility of violence, every rational human being also understands the hypocrisy inherent in such lessons, since life surrounds us with countless examples of practical solutions wrought in savagery. While each act of brutality inevitably debases all humankind, a maladjusted minority also recognize in it a tempting potential to make quick return on a prized reward. Perspective, then, becomes a matter of outcomes. Most of us will experience violence demeaning; few of us will know violence redeeming. Journey into the surreal and mysterious in -Constant Is the Sound-, -Listen, Darling-, -Tending the Garden of Evil-, -Magicus-, and -Airport-. Have a frighteningly good time reading -They Walk-, -The Tollbooth-, and -Defile-. Experience the true horror that is contemporary reality in -Bus Driver, Bus Driver-, -Fatty, Fatty-, and -Scrawl-, or take a trip into the darkness of the past in -Spin the Wheels for Ill- and -Envoy to Klis-.
