Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Darkly comical, surreal, and at times, deeply touching.'- Sara B. (Artist)'The tears of a clown clang against the floor like silver bullet casings. Speeding forward locked in battle with apparitions emerging from the afterburner, Alex Osman is in a league of his own.'- Gwen Hilton (author of Sent to the Silkworm House &Where the Breastplate Meets the Blade)I'll be honest - I jumped at the chance to blurb this book because it meant I didn't have to wait as long to read it. Alex Osman's work will do that to you. I needed another hit. No one else can find the absurdist wonder of dancing primates or toddlers graffitiing the KISS logo around their kindergarten. Scandals - Alex Osman's strongest collection of writing so far - is full of cultural references - because the morning kids show entertainers, sitcom stars, the brand names of the day are the true landscape of the Americana that Osman chooses to mine and dissect with and within his work.Osman is a genuine surrealist and understands the comedy, the horror, the pain, the immortal and yet constantly fleeting nature within everyday pop-culture. Something that adds a strength and depth to his multi-faceted body of work is that he also sees the beauty, the brief moments of truth and bliss amid the confusing blur of the whole mess of everything that makes up life. And we should be thankful that he does. Work this brilliant and evocative should be treated like the rare jewel that it is.- Thomas Moore (author, Forever, Alone, & Your Dreams).
