Eyeballs Growing All Over Me . . . Again
Eyeballs Growing All Over Me ...Again
Eyeballs Growing All Over Me . . . Again
Tony Rauch
A man comes home to discover a Bigfoot-like creature watching his tv, a giant robot pays a visit to a couple, a new kid has some unusual toys to share, an inventor creates a gorgeous robot in order to meet women,  a girl becomes so ill she has her head replaced with a goat head, someone wakes to discover little eyes growing all over his body, small, hairy creatures come looking to retrieve an object they had misplaced, and a boy finds an unusual pair of sunglasses in the weeds. These are the whimsical, surreal adventures of Tony Rauch. "Absurd, surreal, playful, dream-like, whimsical, and a lot of fun to read. Tony Rauch has been one of my favorite short story writers for a long time. Like Richard Brautigan, he's an uncompromising artistic visionary with one heck of an imagination." - CARLTON MELLICK III, author of The Egg Man"Tony Rauch's storys are comical, absurd, bittersweet, and simply a joy to read. Highly recommended." - CAMERON PIERCE, author of The Pickled Apocalypse of Pancake Island

Eyeballs Growing All Over Me . . . Again review by AStew0812

For my inaugural Flamingnet book request and subsequent review, I eagerly selected Eyeballs Growing All OverMe...Again by Tony Rauch, from the great literary intellect of which sprouted such imaginative concepts as 40-foot chickens, not to mention heads the size of elephants and elephants the size of heads. Symbolism abounds throughout, and is eluded by neither the teenage generation's disordered bearings on body-size nor the cyclic nature of agoraphobia. But then again, to mangle Freud, sometimes a bee the size of a tricycle is just a bee the size of a tricycle. Yah, don't ask.
