“This novel contains: much talk of bodily functions,
improbable sexual content, violent death, nuclear crisis and elaborately
inventive profanity. Reader Discretion Is Advised.“
This blurb is on the back of the book. You’ve been warned.
It’s no joke. I decided to pick up this book from Indigo as a way to kill time
while waiting for my inconsiderate friend to show up (late as usual). The title
caught my eye for being so fitting at the moment. After reading the back blurb
and the first few pages, I was hooked. — I’d never read anything like it
before. I spent the next hour and a half immersed in its vulgar glory…unable to
look away.
Just like the cover promises, this
book really is demented, dark and hilarious. This is the first book I've read
of author Douglas Coupland, and I wasn't disappointed. He's such a funny and
descriptive writer and I cannot wait to begin reading more of his work. That
being said, I really hope Raymond Gunt is not based on a real person. *Shudders
in revulsion*
*Side Note*- Drake should read this book. He would totally get Raymond Gunt. #WorstBehavior
