Book Reviews of The Contortionist's Handbook
Book Review: A Work of Genius
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't write reviews...don't have the time. But I had to add my two-cents worth regarding Craig clevenger's "The Contortionist's Handbook." This is an amazing novel. Intelligent, humorous (in it's special way) and absolutely captivating. At times, I didn't feel so much like I was reading a novel, but rather like I was listening to a friend tell me about the crazy things that have been going on in his life. The story was amazing both from the standpoint of the creative concept and the skill with which it was structured and conveyed.I met Craig and heard him read last night in Brooklyn, and I am still in awe. I will be reading this novel repeatedly and giving it as a gift for years to come. (I just ordered three more hardcovers!)
Looking forward to Dermaphoria, Craig's next novel (in progress).
A fan for life.
