Nigel Wells's Wilderness is haunted by the figure of sixties cult-singer Jim Morrison. The poems are about American outlaws and outsiders. They start with Morrison, and Morrison is never far away, like Jekyll's Mr Hyde. He is the wraith behind the other poems, a werwolf slipping back from the wild, a shadow.Just Bounce is the other side of Wells: his religious impulse, his animal nature, his delight in riot and ceremony, his obsession with English churches, Welsh rivers, birds, death and dereliction.Nigel Wells won a Welsh Arts Council Book Prize for his first book, The Winter Festivals (Bloodaxe Books, 1980)

Breaking new ground in its innovative blend of quantitative and qualitative methods, the book essentially argues that another sort of growth is indeed possible.

What you are about to read takes place on a distant parallel earth whereupon automobiles so happen to be living creations. There exists upon this parallel earth a collective of six individuals who refer to themselves as Club AutoRape. They do not see the automobile in the same light as many others and find its existence to be utterly offensive. In a quest to gather the necessary resources to one day give an automobile the kind of treatment it so deserves, these individuals managed to utilize a sliding device and a top-secret military program to their advantage. They have constructed a compound existing on a parallel earth designed for the sole purpose of disciplining the automobile. These individuals have furthermore taken advantage of a top-secret military program in which they have become what could only be considered as redesigned humans with android properties. Using the very best of cybernetics and nanotchnology, these individuals have been given the ability to alter their strength and their heights at will. With the ability to reach heights of twenty feet, one of these individuals could theoretically rip a car apart with his bare hands. It took these individuals ten years to construct a compound so designed to make what would otherwise be nothing but a fantasy a reality. These are the stories of these individuals and the cars they have captured for discipline. It is advised to first read the introductory story (link below), then feel free to indulge in the destruction of the automobile. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6NvzUZVlbePVTBrTkhYazVPVVU/view?usp=sharing
