| Publisher Description: FULL COLOR EDITION, with 90 artworks by Nick Patterson. "It might well be genius."* Strap on your leather harness and climb aboard This is one wild, mad ride of a novel you won't find in any theme park within our universe. Family Romance merges two extraordinary talents into a single chimera of horror, comedy, raunch and lyricism. The inimitable Bizarro fiction writer, Tom Bradley, penned a story based on the fantastic Deviant art of Nick Patterson. The result is a surreal novel with art so evocative, you may find it oozing into your dreams. Or your nightmares. "The contemporaries of Michelangelo found it useful to employ the term "terribilita" to characterize some of the expressions of his genius, and I will quote it here to sum up the shocking impact of this work as a whole. I read it in a state of fascination, admiration, awe, anxiety, and outrage." - R.V. Cassill, editor of The Norton Anthology of Fiction "Tom Bradley is one of the most exasperating, offensive, pleasurable, and brilliant writers I know. I recommend his work to anyone with spiritual fortitude and a taste for something so strange that it might well be genius." - *Denis Dutton, Arts & Letters Daily "I tell you that Dr. Bradley has devoted his existence to writing because he intends for every center of consciousness, everywhere, in all planes and conditions (not just terrestrial female Homo sapiens in breeding prime), to love him forever, starting as soon as possible, though he's prepared to wait thousands of centuries after he's dead." - Cye Johan, Exquisite Corpse |
