SpookyMonkey's Full Review: Andy Riley - The Book of Bunny Suicides
Why do bunnies cry? If you cut a bunny, does he bleed? In the right type of stock, are bunnies absolutely delicious? It seems that we, the general public, will never know the truth about rabbits. They've taken it upon themselves to take the darkest secrets within to the grave.
On a tight schedule too, it seems.
Why wasn't I notified of the atrocities that rabbits commit upon themselves? Is it only due to the cause of Andy Riley, resident lagomorph naturalist, that we are privy to that sadness of the natural kingdom?
You've clearly lost your marbles.
And look how sad I am! Imagine if you're a rabbit - you don't even -get- marbles! You can't lose marbles because no one will friggin' buy you any! As humans, we live a life of luxury. We cannot truly appreciate the blessing we've received that is collecting spherical glass balls that we can plunk against one another in playgrounds in our youth or put up our noses to the abject horror of our parents. How do you think rabbits annoy their adults? Thump their legs extra hard?
Well I--
Enough! This review is here to enlighten the plea of the rabbits. Riley's depictions of the nearing rabbit extinction is so graphic that he has to draw then rather than provide photographic evidence. Rabbits immersed in toasters, consumed in lobster disguises, assisting in seppuku, incinerated, obliterated, disintegrated and brained by very heavy books. This speaks volumes of the stress of the quotidian stress the lagomorph endures.
They breed faster than any animal on the earth. Do you think this has anything to do with it?
Child support! Who's paying for all these kids? There's no social security plan in place. Are your eighty-two thousand kids going to take care of you when you get old (assuming you're not eaten) and decrepit? We know bunnies are brillian minds - just look at hte extent they've gone to in the way they've offed themselves. Who in their right mind would tie a lit rocket to each ear as a means of suicide?
This review is just ridiculous. I'm not reading anymore. You are a sick man.
And likewise, I know my own kind. Riley is demented in the way that Christopher Walken is creepy. The word just isn't adequate enough. It takes a new kind of sick to devote an entire wordless book to the genocide of one species.
...and thus the reason you're reviewing it.
That, and it seemed a likely continuation to "101 Uses for a Dead Cat", a book also on par with my level of support for the animal cause.
So, taken at face value, this book is a series of one-page cartoons illustrating how bunnies nuke themselves in grisly fashions for the amusement of all mankind for a whopping fifteen minutes.
Not exactly. Some people are slow readers and could get half an hour out of this.
Well I'm leaving this review. There's nothing else you can possibly add.
I'd like to make a statement advocating bunny psychoanalysis , not to mention someone who actually speaks bunny. If we do not preserve the natural order, then bunnies will off themselves in greater numbers and *gasp* there may even be more books detailing the macabre End of Days for all rabbitkind!
Uhm, there's already a sequel.
Oh yeah? Is it any good?
Yeah, it is.
Oh. Well in that case, screw bunnies. If they weren't meant to wind up dead, they wouldn't have been born delicious.
How fickle you are.
Well, I'm drawn to juvenile cartoony books depicting brutal yet amusing demises of small animals. I'm also vaguely intrigued by the look of general complacency on the face of each rabbit. They appear to have come to terms with their own fates and thus should I.
I think Andy Riley just can't draw rabbit mouths.
I think I didn't ask you.
Rabbits. We'll never quite know why, but sometimes they decide they've just had enough of this world - and that's when they start getting inventive. T...More at HotBookSale
