Review: Exceptional Read

The imagination of John Paul Allen is a strange yet exciting to place to find yourself.  I read MONKEY LOVE and still, after a day or two, find myself basking in his images of sensuality and anthropology.  The transformation of Sandra and the weakening of her inhibitions in this story is well-played. The ending was unexpected.  This is a one-sitting read and I enjoyed every minute of it. John Paul Allen is an exceptional writer with a dark and twisted mind.  I agree with Norman Applegate: the next time you're at the zoo, you may just see the gorillas in a different light.
