"Written with a style and humor that haven't been seen since Mark Twain . . . it is a prize."--Los Angeles Times., "Written with a style and humor that haven't been seen since Mark Twain . . . it is a prize."-- Los Angeles Times "Hard to put down because of the sheer brilliance and fun of the writing. The sentiments of Brautigan and the joyously compassionate omniscience of Fielding dance through the pages garbed colorfully in the language of Joyce."- Rolling Stone, "Written with a style and humor that haven't been seen since Mark Twain . . . it is a prize."--Los Angeles Times "Hard to put down because of the sheer brilliance and fun of the writing.

Synopsis
A stunningly original semicomic thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of Still Life with Woodpecker "Written with a style and humor that haven't been seen since Mark Twain."-- Los Angeles Times What if the Second Coming didn't quite come off as advertised? What if "the Corpse" on display in that funky roadside zoo is really who they say it is--what does that portend for the future of western civilization? And what if a young clairvoyant named Amanda reestablishes the flea circus as popular entertainment and fertility worship as the principal religious form of our high-tech age? Another Roadside Attraction answers those questions and a lot more. It tells us, for example, what the sixties were truly all about, not by reporting on the psychedelic decade but by recreating it, from the inside out. In the process, it is fully capable of simultaneously eating a literary hot dog and eroding the borders of the mind. "Hard to put down because of the sheer brilliance and fun of the writing.

All pictured books seemed acurate. If not for the damage the value would have been great.

    Same as in photo. Packaging could have been better, nothing but a flimsy plastic bag type envelope. Thankfully it arrived undamaged 🙌 and a day early. Fantastic value. Great seller. Thank you!
