A Box of Bunny Suicides [Paperback]

Andy Riley (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 26, 2006

Rabbits. WeÂ’ll never quite know why, but sometimes they decide theyÂ’ve just had enough of this world. A Box of Bunny Suicides follows over two hundred bunnies as they find ever more outlandish ways to do themselves in. From an encounter with the business end of Darth VaderÂ’s light saber to hiding under an elephantÂ’s footstool, no stone goes unturned (or undropped, or uncatapulted) as these twisted little cuties sign off in style.

A Box of Bunny Suicides combines Andy RileyÂ’s two cult favorite books, The Book of Bunny Suicides and The Return of the Bunny Suicides, and will appeal to anyone in touch with their darker side.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Brilliantly researched—one of the most important books of the year. (Hugh Grant) Watership Down for the deeply sick. Very imaginative, very funny, very worrying if you are the author’s mother. (Richard Curtis) It’s the funniest, bunniest book I’ve ever read. (Elton John)

This is not item 3 in the series. It is the first 2 books packaged together. they are hilarious, but it's not so hilarious to order it thinking it's a new book when it's just the first 2.

Sometimes you just need the off-beat humor of Andy Riley. The cute little bunnies in the throes of depression are more than a twisted cause for laughter. They're a reminder that people tend to take life far too seriously. People of all ages enjoy these books. I would also recommend Riley's Great Lies to Tell Small Children.

As a fan of "Unpleasant Ways to Die" by Elan Fleisher, I thoroughly enjoyed the dichotomous use of bunnies in the hilariously morbid scenarios. Brilliantly dark and twisted, many a cube-dweller will be inspired to adorn their stark walls with these fanciful images of death. They will also serve to weed out those who do not share your humor. Call it natural selection.
