Review

"A funny romp ... the best screen is inside your head, just waiting to have this rollicking adventure projected on it." -- Mike Gunderloy, Factsheet Five


Product Description

Here are images of our culture's absurdities, injustices, violence and desires, shot at you in a machine-gun-like assault on your senses and intellect. The result is hilarious, chilling and irrevocably mind-altering --- a left-brain/right-brain challenge ... a consciousness-raising experience filled with laughter, rage --- and truth.

5.0 out of 5 stars "This will rearrange the inside of your head if you let it.", September 16, 1999
By A Customer
My friend William Kevin Burke said that after he read the Schrodinger's Cat trilogy, and I would say it of every book Robert Anton Wilson ever wrote. We live in a world where most people can't really call themselves particularly wise (and know it) while a few so-called leaders pretend to be wise; the truly wise number but a handful and often go unrecognized. Even among the wise handful Wilson has few peers. When very young I thought the grownups really understood what was going on: Wilson, that rare bird, actually seems to. I want to see him win a Nobel. RAW's writing often carries so much meaning that one understands only a little at the first reading (I didn't feel I had really mined Schrodinmger's Cat until about the fifth reading. If such depth seems intimidating, would you rather read five shallow, insipid books once? Besides, he runs an easy installment plan: laugh now, understand later.) RAW wrote "Reality Is What You Can Get Away With" as a film script, but it hasn't made it onto a movie screen yet. One may hope, however: modern technology has made it easier to put even the most fantastic visions onscreen quite cheaply, assuming one HAS a vision to communicate. He has.

4.0 out of 5 stars Screenplay, October 11, 2001
By A Customer
Hard to find and fun to read, another addicting tale by Anton-Wilson. Intoxicating and bizarre turns of event that will tempt you to read it backwards to see how it all ends.
