Take a journey to that place of the memory, of recalling good
times, times that were not so good, a place you would like to
return to if only for a little while. That place is O'Sullivan's
Place. Once there, you can explore, not only past memories, but
current encounters with real people who face the daily grind of
their jobs yet still perform out of dedication. Also explore some
of the wonders and questions of nature and some of our most
personable critters. And delve into the human experience of life's
triumphs and follies as Joes Robert takes you there through his
uncluttered verse and stimulating prose.
When Professor J.E. Roberts was first employed at the then Cancer
Hospital (Free) in 1932, the words medical and physics were rarely
joined together. Meandering in Medical Physics presents an account
of Professor Roberts's experiences in professional life, both in
the United Kingdom and overseas. It documents the early history of
medical physics and provides insight into the very basic equipment
and working conditions well known to hospital physicists not long
ago. Enhanced by archived photographs from the British Institute of
Radiology, the book will entertain, enlighten, and educate.
The paintings, drawings, and mixed-media works of Joe Roberts are
transportive in the cosmic sense. Through their intuitive blend of
styles and subjects, they serve as portals into a welcomingly
hallucinatory world: a place where gleeful mashups of childhood
signifiers (comic book detritus, cartoon mascots) exist cozily
alongside countercultural reference points (ouija boards, sci-fi
paperbacks, UFOs) and earnest flashes of the personal (diaristic
sketches, confessional trip reports). Reissued for the first time
since 2015, LSD Worldpeace documents the extraordinary creativity
and scrappy methods of Roberts's early career, replete with
collages, action figures, and dioramas, in addition to the
paintings for which he's become so celebrated. With introductory
texts by Myla DalBesio and Matthew Ronay, LSD Worldpeace is the
product of a wildly imaginative artist moving freely between modes,
guided by a boundless vision.
Artist Joe Roberts has spent more than a decade honing a deeply
unique and unapologetically hallucinogenic style of art. Through
paintings, drawings and mixed-media works, Roberts navigates a
world of cosmic imagery, pop cultural detritus, and shifting
geometric forms, bringing to life both the creeping unease and the
uncanny humor of the psychedelic experience. Collecting over 100
new and recent works along with an introduction by Hamilton Morris
(Hamilton’s Pharmacopeia), We Ate the Acid is the latest product
of Roberts’ visionary journeys and a testament to his expansive,
singular imagination.

What is happiness? Can it conform to some defined standards? That
is the question that motivated Joe Roberts Caputo to write this
fascinating novel. The 84 year old author of The Radio Story, and
Thoughts, Musings and Observations combines vivid characters, sex,
and a touch of fantasy in this tale of possible options. Mitch
Sheridan has lost the love of his life in a tragic accident. But,
after an accident of his own, he is able to connect with his dead
wife in the most realistic ways and achieves absolute bliss. The
problem is that only he can see and experience her. Should he try
to get cured of his figment, at the risk of losing his connection,
or should he enjoy what everyone else in the world is perusing...
happiness? Learn the answer in a jaw-dropping conclusion that no
one saw coming!
