Columbia!journa. fill DUSTJACKETS "I like to think I've read all the farm animal care books that have come out in the last 20 years". Speaking of pigs specifically, this book is the very, very best." - GENE LOGSDON (on Storey's Guide to Raising Pigs) "A brilliant autism novel has been overdue - and this is it!" OLIVER SACKS (on The Curious Incident ofthe Dog in the Night-Time) "It's absolutely gosh-wow, super-colossal - smart, funny, and acontinual pleasure to read. In ajust world." it should win prizes. That wouldn't be at all amazing." - MICHAEL D1RDA (on The Amazing Adventures of KaMer and Clay) "A rollicking Pynchonesque oddity, aNabokovian linguistic obsession, and aBorgesian unreality. [House of Leaves] jumps and skips and plays with genre-wrecking abandon, postmodern panache, and an obsessively imaginative scope that absolutely shames most books on the market today." - SAN FRANGISCO EXAMINER and CHRONICLE (on House of leaves) "For some reason, more and more young writers are producing dystopian novels. Chris Genoa rides the quest of this wave with weird humor, great characters, and descriptions of time travel so accurate that you'd think he's actually traveled through time. Well? Have you, Chris?" - NEAL POLLACK (on Foop) "This version of the Inferno is God's face in a Groucho mask." SAN FRANGISCO CHRONICLE "Only those suffering from the deepest depression, or already dead, will not derive the greatest pleasure and laughter ... in this truly wonderful book." - DAILY EXPRESS (on Where There's a mm "[Percival Everett] has the acerbic brilliance and unsparing eye of Swift but is much funnier. His new novel is as manic and antic as Tristram Shandy and as wildly original as Monty Python, but the absurdist comedy is dark in the manner of lonesco." - JANETTE TURNER HOSPITAL (on American Desert) Find agood book blurb?
