strong eye contact
DESCRIPTION
In Christopher Adams’ Strong Eye Contact, the reader is led through a kaleidoscope of crystalline memory fragments, guided by a quixotic, Buster Keaton-like figure. As this unnamed figure tries, with limited success, to be a typical American: using consumer products, failed vacations, fabricated family life, he also attempts to be a successful comic, much like the collection of pages he lives on.TRANSCRIPT

Praise for Strong Eye Contact:
“Rarely have magic markers worked such luminous brilliance.” -- Matt Seneca
“Weird, imaginative, and raw. Adams creates a textural experience leading you through the follies of his character’s life.” -- Aidan Koch, The Blonde Woman, The Whale
“A bloody Q- tip, the crumbs of a waffle and an airplane on fire...it all comes together with Christopher’s unique drawing system. Is the comedian dreaming or is the comedy a dream?” -- Eamon Espey, Songs of the Abyss, Wormdye
“Like a Mr. Hulot transposed into the America of soft-serve and mini-golf, Adams’ comedian is a normal guy trying to deal with work and relaxation in a landscape of perplexing patterns.” -- Matthew Thurber, 1-800-MICE, Infomaniacs
