Frank and Philby meet at uni. Frank is the king of cool and dysfunctionally libidinous. Philby is nervous, nerdy, and dysfunctionally insecure. Somehow, they form a team, and go about chasing girls, passing their degrees and surviving many a green drink experience.
The hilarious misadventures of Frank and Philby are just part of what lies between the covers of Headgames. There's also a difficult unicorn, a shampoo fetish, a cyber romance, a shopping mall that goes on forever, a fishing trip with Keanu Reeves and much, more more.
From the comic to the bizarre, Headgames is Nick Earls at his adventurous best.
Praise for 'Headgames'
"This is a book that you will want to keep by you, to read and reread: you would be hard-hearted indeed to resist its quite extraordinary appeal."Sydney Morning Herald
"Earls dissects character with an unflinching eye and exploits awkward and painful situations brilliantly"
The Age
"Witty and sad, Earls strikes the perfect balance for a fun and thoughtful reading experience."
Sun Herald
"My first giggle occurred on page three ... and I didn't stop giggling, laughing or thinking during the rest of Earls' delightful new work."
Sunday Herald Sun
"keenly observed ... wildly funny ... riotous ... gleefully surreal ... mind-bending ... deftly switching between silliness and sadness"
