Jose Saramago's The Gospel According to Jesus Christ is an irreverent and hilarious romp from Galilee to Golgotha. As our Lord comes to understand who he is, he questions God, and God's answers are unsatisfying. Funny, poignant, and poetic at the same time. --H.B.

It's not as hilariously uproariously perfect as Youth in Revolt but what is? This is in itself a wildly unpredictable novel -- the saga of two twin sisters dealing with their reverend father's run for vice presdent. Characters double-cross one another, form uneasy alliances, and otherwise try to outmaneuver one another in so many ways...and break into song spontaneously, too!! A comic gem from a writer deserving praise and honor. --Michael F.

This is an extremely fast-paced and pulsating novel about the intense relationship between writers and their readers. Foucault is not a character who appears in the book, but he is a powerful presence in the story. I read it greedily. --Chuck

This is a crazy ride through a future NYC with no electricity, lots of psychics, a blackmarket baby dealing ring and twisted new designer drugs. Graffiti and guns mingle wth gas street lights and horse drawn trolleys. Best of all is the ultimate commercialization of literature through Lit Wear. Don't miss this book! --Hilary
