With two hit Edinburgh Fringe shows under his belt, Bang Said The Gun's Rob Auton delivers his debut collection of poems and stories. In Heaven The Onions Make You Laugh captures the charming, kooky, sideways look at the ordinary and the extraordinary that have gained Rob's live shows a cult following. Through Rob's eyes the world is a magical/beautiful/ridiculous/horrific place to live. It includes the acclaimed A Footballer's Life For Me which was filmed and broadcast as part of Channel 4's Random Acts series.

Rob Auton follows the success of In Heaven The Onions Make You Laugh with a deeper darker, richer collection of his trademark micro stories and poems from the other side. Featuring work from the two Edinburgh shows that have earned him cult status and a growing army of fans, Petrol Honey explores the deeper meaning of the colour yellow, whether Lurpak is available in heaven, what happens in a supermarket when the lights go out and how photographing food is the 21st Century equivalent of saying grace before a meal. You will never look at the world in the same way again...
