Summary: relentless imagination!
Review: I enjoyed this book thoroughly. Swift, nervy narrative, with nonchalant bizarreness and details everywhere to make you laugh, furl your brow or shudder. Take this: "Elias made a circle with his cigar and set it in the ashtray. He put his fingers together and the shadow it projected resembled a bird. Across the room wearing a long pale face, Winks sat quietly plucking at his sleeve. Elias examined his nails, saw something he didn't like, picked at it, reexamined it and passed inspection." If you don't seem to find the time or funds for travel, read this book. It'll jump-start you (in the legs or brain or both), for starters.

Summary: THIS GUY IS GOOD WITH HIS HANDS!!!
Review: If you are a music fan, check out the CD's w/Johnny Strike (Crime) composing, playing, singing some of the best rock+roll to come out of 70's Punk in the US. There is a complexity and simplicity, in words and music that was rare for this time, place and genre. Brilliant really.
NOW we have this BOOK published by Headpress,Manchester-UK, a critically acclaimed independent publisher, more eclectic and adventurous than major publishing houses and known by people in the know for fine cutting edge books since the early 90's. VERY ECLECTIC.This is a partnership!
Johnny Strike is a premier storyteller.A man of keen imagination and experience. The visuals, the layers, the places, the characters, plots and sheer COOLNESS of the writing. THIS IS MODERN, VISIONARY ENTERTAINMENT.Calm and collected. It takes you on a real journey. For real travelers. Take the trip.
