Australia's avant guardian angel adds another feather to his skull with 'The Flacco Files,' a compilation of graphic eccentricities meant to amuse and confound the neural pathways of a nation.
Like a persistent cough, Flacco sporadically materialises across the thonglines of Australian culture. His primal yawp has clogged the airways, his pliant but poignant countenance continues to grace our television screens. He has trodden the boards on both the left and the right ends of the continent and with neither teeth nor hair this queer anomaly has perplexed audiences across the planet. In Australia he remains, and always will be, a boiled egg on stilts.
This beautiful colour book has 58 colour illustrations, reproducing Paul Livingston's elaborate and surreal images (and occasional words) as seen in 'The Flacco Files' in The Australian every fortnight.
