"The absurdism of a Lear or a Lewis Carroll refracted through the noir novels of Derek Raymond. Great stuff."

--WILL SELF, October 2009

Once you have read Lubin Tales, you will almost certainly spot glimpses of King's micro-fictions in the world around you. This is a book which you will read and want to reread - it would be a perfect gift for anyone with an unorthodox imagination, an irreverent sense of humour and an interest in "intercontinental dubious intent".

Product Description

Welcome to a world of small town debauchery and intercontinental dubious intent . . .

Lubin Tales is a 64-page hardback, pocket-sized collection of beautifully illustrated 'micro-fictions' - short stories and musings by artist and performer Gerry King. Surreal, playful and romantic the stories are woven together from various locations and time frames; an abandoned 1947 V-12 Lincoln automobile waits for a history in a French wood, British seaside resorts are portrayed with renewed love and nostalgia. A host of characters tease and entertain; the fabulous Pauls, one a continental hairdresser, the other a 1950s welterweight boxer, plus the promenade-prancing Poodle Faker and the deliciously deviant Stealerant. Each page is a visual delight, colour throughout with graphic illustration and photography. £10.00
