Book Description

A childhood friend that turned terrorist in an Islamic militant splinter faction of Amway. Richard Nixon’s commentary on his favorite Dokken album. A reality TV show about competitive grave robbing. A movie review of Little Fockers, exploring the film’s BSDM-inspired pedophilia themes and parody of the Ben Hur chariot race, filmed with small breed dogs around a set designed like a 1970s Times Square filled with heroin addicts and pornographers.

Such scenarios and more are depicted in Fistful of Pizza, ten short stories and tales of woe by Jon Konrath, author of Rumored to Exist. This metafictional collection of surrealist fiction is compiled from Konrath’s long-running web site, The Wrath of Kon, and includes “If People Can Eat Blood Pudding, I Can Say I’m a Writer on My Tax Return”, “With Sleep, All Things are Possible”, “My Friend, The Jihadist”, “My Brother Died in a Clown Car Accident, You Douchebag”, and five other pieces of gonzo fiction written from a grim and twisted point of view.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing read! April 13, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Jon Konrath never fails to entertain with his rapid fire ideas, blasting the reader like a machine gun shooting word bullets. This collection of short stories is the perfect introduction to the psycho mind of this twisted genius.

5.0 out of 5 stars a whim that paid off big July 16, 2012
Format:Paperback
This is another whim that paid off big. I ran across Konrath and wanted to check some of his writing out, going for this one because I dug the title. I'm pleased I did because I really got into these stories. Konrath's writing has a lot of raw energy and fluid creativity. A conman motivational speaker Jesus with eerily close religious parallels, a metal head Richard Nixon whose death was only faked, a captain of a Titanic recreation service for those who find erotic pleasure in a ship striking an iceberg and sinking...you just have no idea what is coming next. The stories leap and jump, and it all works. Konrath's writing has real vitality that is refreshing and very satisfying to read.

A collection of short stories from JA Konrath, this book was interesting and, at the time, it was free. I enjoyed the quick read.

More About the Author

I write absurdist, bizarro, and experimental fiction, and self-publish because the big six (or five or four or whatever it is this week) tend to shy away from fiction about plane crash enthusiasts and Satanic demolition derby leagues.

I've published eight books, including Rumored to Exist, Fistful of Pizza, The Earworm Inception, and Sleep Has No Master. I also run Paragraphline.com, which has published 13 issues of fiction and occasional fact. And I've appeared in a bunch of anthologies and on websites and in zines. I got started in the zine world by writing reviews of heavy metal albums, and I occasionally lapse back into that when I don't take my medication.

I've lived in North Dakota, Michigan, Indiana, Seattle, New York, Denver, Los Angeles, and now Oakland. When I am not writing or creating an environment to foster dust mite reproduction in the form of collecting books, I take things apart, try to play bass, and spend too much time on wikipedia reading about obsolete technology and farming methods of the 14th century.

I can be found at http://rumored.com or on twitter at @jkonrath.
