A Poke in the Third Eye with a Sharp Stick

Book Cover

About the Book

Mind Crash sets out to explore the deepest recesses of the human psyche through the utilisation of several, often brutal, language exploration techniques.

The results - a seemingly random collection of metaphysical short stories, cut-ups, koans, poems and automatic writing - are often as unsettling as they are darkly humorous.

Whilst employing these frequently painful mental gymnastic routines, the author unwittingly unleashes, and subsequently exorcises, a number of allegorical demons.

Do not forget to bolt your windows whilst reading it!

Mind Crash originally started life as a series of sporadic newsletters, available through subscription only, for a selective band of cultural mischief-makers strewn across the USA, Europe and Japan.

These long-since out of print works, together with previously unpublished pieces, have now been composed into a single volume for the very first time.

Copy of an old school report:

For the hard of hearing, it says:
"Mike does not know what the term 'work' means. The work he produces is often not worth marking and (he) takes no interest at all in improving it. He is immature and this is reflected in his silly behaviour" Religious Studies
