And I love that your book is the title of one of his songs. The writing is amazing...the tv was blaring behind me and someone was cutting the lawn outside when I read this, but I got pulled into the quiet voice of the passage and didn't even notice what was around me. That's good stuff!Rachele Alpinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02899898654095163712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4375524926817525353.post-36078359652695209082010-04-27T13:23:31.360-04:002010-04-27T13:23:31.360-04:00:D:Dhannah moskowitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02347576280638165266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4375524926817525353.post-73723791569477613142010-04-27T13:10:15.003-04:002010-04-27T13:10:15.003-04:00I love love love love love this book.

Having been in an accident that nearly took the life of my passenger, I know the kind of taint it can put on anything. I'm proud of you for digging back into this manuscript with such a touchy title.<br /><br />Now, as for the excerpt, let me just say that you are brilliant. Your narrator's world view is so explicit, so concisely communicated in this passage that I sort of want to throw myself out a window, or at least set my manuscript on fire. (Ahh, would that it were printed out...)<br /><br />The others have already hit the juiciest bits of all this juicy prose. So, I'll go with "what they said!"<br /><br />Thanks for sharing.<br /><br />- LizLiz Czukashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15656897969180818333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4375524926817525353.post-75124600129424870712010-04-27T10:20:26.395-04:002010-04-27T10:20:26.395-04:00I love love love this.

Old enough to drive, old enough to work, old enough to smoke, drink, date. . . All the arbitrary external stuff. Brilliant work :)Ellen Brickleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01184391430927483100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4375524926817525353.post-4606718087999766962010-04-27T01:31:58.575-04:002010-04-27T01:31:58.575-04:00Lucky for you, it's a short book :)
