Marvellous Hairy – a novel in five fractals

Mark A. Rayner joins the site today. In anticipation of an October release of his novel in print, he’s serializing and audio version of his book, Marvellous Hairy – a novel in five fractals:

So hair is sprouting in unspeakable places and you can no longer carry a tune, but if you’re a surrealistic artiste with an addiction to Freudian mythology and guilt-free sex, turning into a monkey has its upsides.

Nick Motbot may be evolving as a novelist, but his friends aren’t too sure about his DNA — at least, not since Gargantuan Enterprises started experimenting with it. And once they figure out what’s happening to him, they decide to set things right. MARVELLOUS HAIRY is a satirical novel about a group of friends sticking it to the man the only way they know how, with equal parts grain alcohol and applied Chaos Theory.

Part literary fun-ride, part fabulist satire, and part slapstick comedy, MARVELLOUS HAIRY is about the power of friendship and love, the evils of power, and the dangers of letting corrupt CEOs run our world.

And most importantly, it’s about how we have to release our fun-loving inner monkeys.

The first five episodes are in the default feed. More will be added. Also, you can take a custom feed and choose how often you get new episodes delivered.

    Thanks again for all your help getting this online Evo!

    I’d love to hear from listeners/readers about what they think of the book, and we can chat about it anywhere you’d like — here, Facebook, Twitter, just name it.

    I’m going to give away copies of the actual book on both Facebook — just become a fan to get entered in the draw (http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/pages/Mark-A-Rayner/68490226665) and Goodreads for anyone who is already a member there.

    Very funny book! I’ll be buying a hard copy.

    P.S. If I ever start a rock band, I’m gonna name it Belligerent Pink.
