Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 04 11, 2012
Genre: Short Stories, Dark Fantasy, Dark HumorPublisher Type: Indie AuthorRating: * * * *My Review:This book is Shel Silverstein* for grown ups, especially those grown-ups with a twisted sense of humor. Actually, I'd absolutely love to see this book published with Silverstein-inspired illustrations to go with these witty and ironic pondering. These stories and poems are smart, strange, sarcastic and sometimes quite deep. I can't say I loved them all, but every story was unique and interesting. Each story had it's own voice and style. Though I'm not a huge fan of either short stories or poetry, this book was such an enjoyable read. And to top it all, this is a $ .99 book (& currently free on Amazon, but I don't know for how long)!Cover Art:This is a fun cover that fits the book quite well. I love the block-print look to the graphics.*Just in case your not familiar, Shel Silverstien (my very favorite poet in the whole world) wrote children's books such as The Giving Tree and Where the Sidewalk Ends.See more of my reviews at: [...]
