Xtian’s Book of 100 Illustrated Facts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

by Xtian<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The world is confusing, it has always been confusing–and it will always be so. The Pit of Despair calls, but you need not fall, for you have KNOWLEDGE of FACTS. Don’t you? NO?!!! Then you need this book. Filled with 100 surreal collages illustrating 100 facts, this book sidesteps wordy confusing explanations in favour of presenting photo-real images of FACTS and only FACTS, as snatched from the realms of delirium and dreaming. Does this sound true? Well, it’s definitely weird–and that’s a fact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
