A Man Made Entirely of Bats - Patrick Lenton

'A Man Made Entirely of Bats' is a collection of short stories and flash fiction by one of Australia's newest voices. Comedic and absurd, these stories are an entertaining exploration of the concept of super heroes and of the super strange in our world. This is well written silliness with stories such as 'Radiocative Jerk' the tale of a man bitten by a jerk, therefore gaining the exponential strength of ten jerks, and 'The Insomni-Yak' about a man who can't sleep and is visited by a well-meaning yak every night. 'Featuring a colourful assortment of superheroes, mutants, zombies, bank robbers and boy bands - these stories are wonderfully bizarre, original and hilarious. A new and original voice, Patrick Lenton's short stories bring qualities rare in Australian fiction; inventiveness, humour, and a fine sense of the absurd.' RYAN O'NEILL
