Silent Bob Kindle Edition

Nurture or nature?
Nature or nurture?
One thing’s for sure—
Your life’s not yours.

Meet BJ and Rainey, two misfits from a rural town in Kentucky. While living their everyday lives, they stumble upon a shocking secret: humanity is controlled by invisible creatures called the viziers who manipulate through pheromones and telepathic suggestion. Delving deeper, they uncover a bizarre world where laughter and tears are commodities and are forced to strive to be more than just “syrup units” providing the viziers with all the tragi-comic emotion they can eat.

Darkly comedic and thought-provoking, Silent Bob is a captivating exploration of the human condition, exposing the absurdity and vulnerability of our lives. With subtle humor and unexpected twists, this page-turner will leave readers questioning the true nature of their emotions and the forces shaping their lives.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Joe Taylor was mysteriously born in Cincinnati to be transported immediately to Corbin, Kentucky. He then lived in Lexington and Bardstown before moving to Tallahassee, Florida, where he obtained a Ph.D., with much help and understanding from that university’s faculty. He has had three story collections published (The World’s Thinnest Fat Man; Some Heroes, Some Heroines, Some Others; and Masques for the Fields of Time). Also, there are a matching number of novels (Oldcat & Ms. Puss: A Book of Days for You and Me; Let There Be Lite: How I Came to Know and Love Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem; and Pineapple: A Comic Novel in Verse) published. The linked stories from his forthcoming collection, Ghostly Demarcations, appeared in several magazines, including moonShine, Jitter, Weird and Whatnot, Steam Ticket, Red Dirt Forum, and Cleansheets Review (online). He has edited several story collections, including Tartts One through Tartts Seven and Belles’ Letters. As well as the above forthcoming story collection from Sagging Meniscus Press, he has a forthcoming novel entitled, The Theoretics of Love. Several completed novels are floating around in electronic ether. He presently is putting the finishing touches on a second comic novel in verse, entitled Back to the Wine Jug, which features a resurrected Victoria Woodhull, J Edgar Hoover, Diogenes and his faithful hound Pluto plus that ever-present but not so effective lantern that shines in eternal search of one honest (hu)man. Taylor and his wife Tricia house 15 stray dogs, which almost matches the number of years that he has directed Livingston Press—over 25.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A book out of this world and yet so close
    Reviewed in the United States on 20 December 2023
    Verified Purchase
    B.J. and Rainey, two friends, then lovers and later a family from central Kentucky, discover an invisible world of three-eyed viziers with reptilian pink tongues, living on the rooftops of ordinary people’s houses. To the viziers, people are syrup units, to watch, control and gossip about. And to thrive on their emotions.

    Together, the couple takes the reader through different events of modern American history from the 1970s Vietnam War, the Oklahoma bombing, sheep Dolly cloning, the Twin Towers destruction, the millennium bug, and other political controversies.

    Here is what happened when someone named Gerald passed away.

    When Rainey and B.J. glanced at one another, Frances went on. “I mean, all the happiness and all the sadness in the world. We get overwhelmed and die when our cups are brim-filled with both.”

    She hummed for a moment, and then she broke down and sobbed loudly, “But Gerald’s cup wasn’t full! He was just twenty-three! Why? Why?” There was no answer.

    Silent Bob, Rainey thought. There was no answer. Silent Bob, BJ thought. Frances’s sobs transformed slowly into a jerky humming.

    And who is silent Bob? It’s for you to discover.

    The dark satirical book is exotic, tantalizing, absurdist, and wonderful.

    However you describe Silent Bob, and if you can, my hats off to ya, it's a lot of fun, and I got a real kick out of it. It may have changed my life, but only time will tell.
