I read the previous reviews, and most readers described The Squirrel That Dreamt of madness as funny. I agree that I laughed out loud many times, but Craig Stone is much more than funny. He's clever, creative, and at times profound. Stone's disjointed, stream-of-consciousness writing reminded me of Hunter S. Thompson on a drug-induced rant. His metaphors take the most unlikely combinations and make them fit."A rumble in the distance belches across the sky like God may be discovering that he is intolerant to wheat."Kudos to Stone for persevering when traditional publishing houses backed away from this book. They don't know what they missed. And thanks to Stone for warning me not to forget to look up in the trees.
