Colourless Green Ideas Sleep Furiously

by Mark Frutkin

tagged: essays
Description

Colourless Green Ideas Sleep Furiously is a collection of short essays that are pithy, aphoristic, and full of fresh insights and witticisms in the manner of Kafka's Parables and Paradoxes, Eduardo Galeano's Book of Embraces, or Pascal's Pensées. "Mark Frutkin has distilled his meditations on language, reason, myth and mystery into nuggets to tickle you into new ways of thinking." - Mark Fried, translator of Galeano.
