Product Description
A mysterious gray book drives Ollister and Adelaide’s twisted po-mo relationship. When it goes missing, they go nuts: he plots revenge against art patriarch The Platypus while she obsesses over their anti-love affair. Meanwhile, the other art school scenesters experiment with terrible drugs, terrible sex, and terrible ideas. When a punk named Punk shows up with a potent sex drug, the whole wild crowd gets caught up in the gravitational pull of The Platypus’ sinister White Ball, where a confused art terrorism cell threatens a ludicrous and hilarious implosion. With an unerring, unflinching eye for satire, Zach Plague’s brilliant hybrid of image and text lampoons the art world and those boring enough to fall into its traps. Featuring dynamic graphic text on every page,
boring boring boring boring boring boring boring is an intrigue of mundane proportion.
Reader ReviewsUnique is sometimes not strong enough a word to describe a book. "Boring" is a novel from the perspective of the musical genre of Punk. With a strange yet accessible format throughout to tell its creative story of an art school couple dealing with their surrounding world of drugs, art terrorism, and sex. A brilliant work of satire, "Boring" is for any fan of fiction seeking something different.
