  Status Update

  George Toles, Cliff Eyland (Illustrator)

  Since 2009, Toles has been posting a creative work of microfiction on Facebook. Eyland took up the challenge of illustrating over a thousand of these. Thomas Toles has selected 99 of these pairings, demonstrating the range of their imaginations. These works explore the humour, melancholy, spontaneity, empathy, messiness, and raunchiness of life, death, sex, loss, personal failure, and human interaction.
