A Mango-Shaped Space: Wendy Mass

This is probably one of my favorite books of all time. It combines quirky people, strange histories, just a pinch of trashy and some beautiful moments. The writing is a little bit worse then that in Elsewhere but it certainly does not plunge to Cabotian depths.

I cried at the end which is a big plus as it really aids in catharsis (cleansing through pain, yes, it's different from masochism).


I actually liked this book so much that I emailed the author, I was pleasantly surprised to find that she wrote back personally within a few days.


I am eagerly awaiting her new book: Jeremy Frink And The Meaning Of Life which should be coming out in a few months, so expect a review of that as soon as it is out.
