Product Description

Book Description

Mind Crash sets out to explore the deepest recesses of the human psyche through the utilisation of several, quite 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!


From the Publisher

Mind Crash originally started life as a series of sporadic newsletters, available through subscription only, to a selective band of cultural mischief-makers dotted around 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 These long-since out of print works, together with previously unpublished pieces, have now been composed into a single volume for the very first time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Poetry Emotion!, 26 May 2005
By A Customer
If you are brave and you fancy your chances of being able to poke around the deepest recesses of your own brain, and you think you can survive to tell the tale, then this book is for you.

The style takes a bit of getting used to, the randomness of it all makes it hard to connect any of the 200-300 components together, though with a bit of work (and a little luck) there are some common themes running through it, some of which are disturbing, some uplifting.

I found it easier to open random pages and read a bit at a time, but that's just my preference.

A thoroughly enjoyable experience - like no other book, ever!

5.0 out of 5 stars What a loon!, 30 Nov 2008
The stream of the author's unconscious, captured in text.

Blimey! Disturbing stuff... but curiously engaging and possibly inspirational even. I think...

I'm scared!
