The Eyes Had It
A Modern Chronicle of the Dismantled Race
by Jack Davis
What if every phrase you've ever read every cliché, every bit of poetic fluff wasn't metaphor, but warning?
Martin Kell, a tired English teacher in South London, finds a battered romance paperback on the evening train. He expects bad writing. What he finds instead is an impossible line:
"...his eyes slowly roved about the room."
At first, it seems like nothing more than clumsy prose. But as Martin reads deeper, the language becomes stranger. Arms are removed with ease. Hearts are handed over. People split in two and carry on as normal. No one in the story reacts because to them, it's perfectly natural.
And that's what terrifies him most.
As Martin spirals deeper into paranoia, language itself begins to twist. Are these merely careless metaphors? Or clues of a hidden species that dismantles itself piece by piece, all while hiding in plain sight?
Inspired by a classic short story by Philip K. Dick, The Eyes Had It is a darkly comic, quietly horrifying novella about language, perception, and what lurks beneath the sentences we never question.
You'll never look at a paperback the same way again.
