‘Funny humorous’, or ‘Funny peculiar’? There are elements of both in this book, unified by the quartet’s playful approach to words and the creative page designs.
Most of the poems and stories started life as performance pieces, and this is how the four authors met. Now, with the input of graphic designer Adrian Lancini (who also contributes verse and prose) their work takes on a strikingly visual dimension.
