"Swamplandia!" and Russell...Great review. "Swamplandia!" and Russell's short stories are on my TBR list; the setting of her stories and the grotesque nature of her characters strike me as things i'd be really into. like, i love the description you quoted: "... my youngest sister is an equestrian of Mesozoic lizards ... my father wears a headdress ... my grandfather bites men now." i am pretty sure this is a book i NEED to read.<br /><br />-- ellenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
