Hole Punch

"Hole Punch, by Garth Simmons, is a short story collections that defies description. Within its pages are hundreds of short, often fragmented, often bizarre narratives, characterised by cartoonish excess, visceral sensory descriptions, eccentric characters, and a grim but brilliant humour."

"a raw, fragmented, nightmarish collection of stories that makes you feel simultaneously bewildered, scared, disgusted, amused and angry all at once"

HOLE PUNCH is:

The height of the Earth Empire – where War Bricks flatten alien civilisations.

Yorkshire 1985 – where a child's mind is patched together with trauma.

Ancient Greece – where Socrates discovers a carnal method of time-travel.

Mars 2348 – where crime and terror haunt the Martian Habitation Domes.

The Mistake's skull – where Muscle Society achieves self-destruction.

Delaware Dost – where mindfulness prevails and hierarchy is understood.

The End of Everything – where convert concepts welcome refugees into the folds of theory.

All these places (and many more!) reside within the tangled text of Hole Punch.
