About The Box MEN
The box men takes its influence from a peculiar novel of Kobo Abe’s, aptly titled The Box Man.
The box men or Or how I learned to love the box, is an unusual type of modern day horror. It holds a mirror up to us, as well as society at large. It does not preach and is written in a rather disturbing manner. The manner mainly being satire and tiny jabs of humour that keep the story grooving.
These people are unusual, disturbed but still they have to live on and learn and find ways to communicate with one another, no matter their curious difficulties.
It is my humble honour to introduce the first box man who does not appear to know what a joke is…make of that what you will.

Author Bio:
D. David Croot has failed for most of his life.
He’s misspent his youth, right here at the keyboard…all for you he might add.
Never would he trade a minute away, for this is his passion! It’s why he get’s up in the morning!
He’s, in a way…modest! Hence third person is the only way he could possible write a bio about himself.
This shines through in the elegance of his prose and the tightness of his poetic heart.
He writes in the literary tradition of Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Adams, Charles Bukowski, Knut Hamsun and Fyodor Dostoevsky but with more of his own individualistic bent! They are the foundation upon which he writes. (Third persons getting weird now isn’t it?)
Sick of the usual trite fodder?
Bored by modern life?
Physiologically affected by the retardation around you?
If you are not offended and have a brain and believe beauty is still in your heart, I’d give me a read!
