Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. TWO TOMMY RAWBORN TALES by Milligan There was no plan, only compulsion. For over a decade, the novelist known only as Milligan remained one of American letters' most tantalizing mysteries-a tenure-track philosophy professor who simply vanished in the early 2000s, leaving behind an unpublished body of work and a trail of unanswered questions. The 2023 discovery of Milligan's papers in a San Diablo storage facility has finally brought his fiction to light. This volume presents two complete novellas featuring Tommy Rawborn, Milligan's thinly-veiled alter ego navigating the Austin counterculture of the late 1980s and the working-class blues of small-town Texas. In Mystic Chemistry, young Rawborn stumbles into an underground revolutionary movement after encountering "the Serum"-a powerful psychedelic promising expanded consciousness. What follows is a characteristically Milliganesque whirlwind of hallucinogenic vision, pseudo-philosophical ranting, and the uncomfortable intersection of political commitment and personal integrity. The Boy on the Bus finds Rawborn attempting post-Austin rehabilitation through Nietzsche and sheer willpower, working at a sandwich shop and navigating obsessive behaviors he's desperately trying to master. It's an unflinching chronicle of destructive male psychology-rendered with the same feverish, self-aware prose that marks all of Milligan's work. Editor Martin Evan Cromack provides scholarly framing, while critic Lawrence K. Dickman-who married Milligan's ex-wife-offers a scathing afterword that questions whether these works deserve publication at all. The result is a volume that documents not just Milligan's fiction, but the contested terrain of his legacy. Dark, difficult, and deliberately uncomfortable, Two Tommy Rawborn Tales will repel as many readers as it attracts-which may be precisely the point. "Some books are better left unread. And some people should stay missing." -Lawrence K. Dickman This item is printed on demand.
