Nothing in terms of story itself seems lost. He hears Hobbes with him. He was born on the day the comic strip ended. His parents named him Calvin. His uncle gave him a stuffed tiger named Hobbes. He has blond hair and had a red wagon. His dad wears glasses. So he sets off across frozen Lake Erie to Cleveland, Susie along for the adventure. And there are even Spaceman Spiff and Stupendous Man episodes!! They say a person my age knows maybe thirty thousand words, so picking the first word out of thirty thousand is the hardest part.

Like beauty has its own secret reason.

It just wants to be glorious and unbelievable. Do you ever wonder what life is all about, Calvin? Yeah, I know you do. Life lets you decide for yourself. The world is a magical place. Read the synopsis if you want to know what the book is about. Second, you should know that Crosbie is a huge fan of Cobain, which makes this all the more fun. One might comment on the balls she has to write about him there is not a trace of disrespect in this book , but I know no one better qualified: Malcolm McDowell , prepare yourself!

Research was done, credits are listed. I imagine the process more like when in Harry Potter they put their wands to their heads and glimmering, ephemeral bits of memories floated out.

And after that, she has to corral these things to form a cohesive story. You just may not be able to piece it altogether instantly.

But I know Lynn is skilled. Somehow, this book completely works. I feel like it must have taken her ten gazillion hours to craft this book, to get it right, to make it work as a novel though it strains at the boundaries of such a construct. The playfulness with words and syntax and meaning is art. She writes love and grit with equal beauty. And like dreams, Lynn wondrously breaks all the rules but leaves us with something nevertheless vivid. I get the feeling, from having read her stuff and following her on Instagram, that Lynn has lived every second of her life.

It is uninhibited while remaining true. Jean-Baptiste haha , who says that Jesus has a Messiah complex, and Peter and Judas also feature on the playground. But Jesus, on the other hand, started having a complete breakdown. Moreau and dated a cat-girl, a deer-girl, and a swan-girl, and finally settled on the monkey-girl, Grandmother. The collection I kind of conceived as a whole.

Curious Beginnings

They would just have little chapters from Dickens novels and then a fairytale, and then an Aesop fable and then a story from the Bible. The collection is the misfit she often writes about but which has through obvious honing of her craft managed to find its own cool place. This book of imaginative, often reimagined stories is in a league of its own, not only with its original stories but also at sentence level. Her sweet, light voice totally surprised me when I first heard it.

Her writing made me imagine something meatier. I love this juxtaposition! I have a thing for the Deep South. I listen to New Orleans blues. The place lends itself to magic both literally and figuratively, though some people might not call it that. And at first, as thrilling as the book sounds, I actually had trouble getting into it.

More sax and less sex. It was all enough to make me genuinely uneasy. Except so mesmerizing at the same time! The veil between this world and the next is far too thin in this book for you to rest comfortably with sweet tea. And Grigorescu is a literary sorceress—who has possibly hung out with the Louisiana witches, because she evoked them something strong in this book.

I cannot remember the last time I spoke aloud at a book, with volume, or if there has ever been a time when, no matter how great the book was, I actually told someone they needed to leave me alone till I finished.

I thought of so many things at once. Is it typical that once you finish a book like this you immediately start looking for flaws? You review the story and the events over and over and look for holes or things you can object to.
