Rant A mock-book cover for Chuck Palahniuk's Rant 'It wasn't nothing to find Rant walked straight all morning out in the desert, laid down flat on one side, his arm disappeared up to the elbow in some dirty hole. Didn't matter what critter- scorpion, snake, or prairie dog- Rant would be reaching blind into the dark underground, hoping for the worst.

"A rattlesnake's just my vaccination against boredom"' Next Home † Contact // All material ©Patt Kelley Illustration.
