Author Random Roo Unveils His Exciting Australian Quest in EYES WISE

Readers are invited to join Random Roo in his semi-serious adventures on the wide open spaces of Australia. Roo sounds a bit like Norman Mailer circa The Armies of the Night as he regales readers with his renditions of stories about farms and the sorry state of Australian agriculture, sheep dogs, mad X's, BP teachers and other unexplained phenomena that pullulate the country. This cannot be a true work of non-fiction and yet the truth of common realities is here. Therefore, Eyes Wise is also a political tractate of sorts, wading through the niggling, perennial issues that face frazzled farmers and small Australian businessmen as they survive any which way they can.

Coming close to the edge of that downward spiral into poverty and depression, that claims so many lives, the author finally did some research to see what was going wrong. Inspired by many great books, he decided that society could generally benefit from the knowledge he had gained. He has taken up his writing cudgels in order to knock some sense into some of his countrymen who have strayed so far from the lessons of the Great Shearers' Strike.

"We built the best society in the World with our critical thought and rejection of BP authority, with the help of the Westminster system that the British people invented to control their own BP nature. It is time to reevaluate the basic principles and fine tune them, before our own Borderline Personality Disordered way of thinking results in a completely BPD Government," the author explains.

It is a pity the Wall Street Protesters had not read Eyes Wise, because the focus of their protest could have been better directed if they had a better understanding of the way BP personalities are screwing up people's lives.

My next book, "Eyes Wise Too" will deal with this subject more directly. The control freaks are trying to transform Australia into an outpost of neo-Nazism and technocratic authoritarianism or worse. Many types of personalities (even big political ones) get kicked in this book. It is an attempt to bring the average reader up to speed on what is wrong in the political system and encourage them to take more interest, because it is only they, who can make a difference. The leaders will not.

In Eyes Wise, Roo offers up his stories to Australians who hold on to the heartland by dint of hard work and counting up the pennies. Holding their heads above water is all anyone can ever hope to achieve in the general run of things. It should not be like this in Australia.

About the Author

Random Roo, at age 56, is still learning. After analyzing the breakdown of his marriage, he's discovered some facts about Psychology that have shed light on a subject that has puzzled him for years - politics, particularly in Australia. As a struggling farmer unhappy with the way the Australian government treated his farming family, it seemed to him that they don't like farmers and therefore are deliberately trying to send them broke. It seems the same for all small businesses in Australia. What has really got him thinking is how supposedly intelligent politicians could act so stupidly in their monetary policies. Who do they think is generating the nation's wealth? The public servants and the unemployed? The author has discovered, with much research, why they (politicians) think the way they do. Roo has learned some inconvenient facts about human nature. In true-blue Aussie tradition, he is stirring the Possum, the see if he can provoke a reaction, and some sane answers that will solve the puzzle of the Australian future.
