Love, Lust and a Little Bit of Cocaine

For certain people, chaos needn't be a curse. For certain people, chaos oughta' be present and as common as a coffee, to necessitate one's mental stability. Meet Cooper.

A comical and dark exploration into the life and mind of Cooper, an intelligent yet quirky individual who has the tendency of accidentally getting involved with things, people and places that, conventionally would be considered detrimental.

About the Book

"Real potential to be a winner. Funny, dark, emotional and eye opening. The next trainspotting!" - Nathan M

A comical and dark exploration into the life and mind of Cooper, an intelligent yet quirky individual who has the tendency of unintentionally getting involved with things, people and places that, conventionally would be considered detrimental.

Beneath the glitzy surface lies a story about a young man's feats of survival and the people he meets along his travels, whilst simultaneously balancing his desire for sobriety against a much stronger desire to alcoholically, and pharmaceutically sedate himself.

Part 1 of the book implores the reader to define the characteristics of being functional in society and whether there are alternative attributes worthy of claiming the title of, 'functional'.

And more importantly, whether the myriad of entertaining, debaucherous and downright dangerous circumstances that Cooper is exposed to, are indeed reflective of the harsher eventuality of taking things too far.

About the Author

Rick Roberts

I'm lacklustre in most... haphazard in others, successful in some but it's a real shame that I can't run... Excuse the tomfoolery, it is genetic after all. On the topic of writing, those who influenced me the most all share the same one big thing in common (putting aside the time periods in which they were alive).

They didn't lie in their novels and books. And I'm not referring to the superficial lies that everybody tells everybody. Instead, they did what they needed.

Influences Include:

  1. William.S Burroughs
  2. Hunter S Thompson
  3. Jack Kerouac
  4. Fyodor Dostoevsky
  5. George Carlin
  6. Bill Hicks
  7. Leo Tolstoy
  8. Irving Welsh

And more which I can't believe I'm forgetting right now. Sigh. So, if you are avid readers/watchers of all of those men then I have no doubt that you will find something enjoyable in my upcoming novel, and writing in general.
