THE EYEBALL END

Beginning with an acid-fuelled night in the Kimberley, the first decade of the 21st century sees Ali MC travelling the globe in an attempt to understand the forgotten corners of the world.

From the streets of Hanoi to the genocide of Rwanda, the war in Lebanon and voodoo ceremonies in Haiti, Ali MC is beaten and shot at as he travels the globe in an attempt to better understand the so-called Third World.

Described as a ‘punk rock travel book’, The Eyeball End steps away from the safety net of well-worn travel guides, taking the reader on a challenging journey into the human condition. 

So begins a decade-long descent into worlds far removed from the comfort of middle-class Australia. Beginning with an acid-fuelled night in the Kimberley, the first decade of the 21st century sees Ali MC travelling the globe in an attempt to understand the forgotten corners of the world.

Although he is beaten and shot at along the way, Ali encounters some of the most enduring stories the so-called Third World can produce. The Eyeball End steps away from the safety net of well-worn travel guides, taking the reader on a unique and challenging journey into the human condition.

The cover of The Eyeball End features the iconic image of a Biafran soldier taken in 1968 by legendary British photojournalist Don McCullin.
