Product Description

Reviews: |
|
Dejah Rubel (USA: MI) (2009/04/10): Very strange but eventually excellent novel. It takes some time to bond with the narrator, but after the first several chapters you truly get a sense of him and his lifestyle and why his aunt is so challenging. A great portrait of many interesting characters.
