What’s mind-blowing to me is that while most of the reviews that I’ve read for this short novel agree that there’s something surreal and compelling and almost compulsory to it, they don’t do a good job of explaining why. Bonking commences.Īnd while, yes, sure, that does actually happen, there is so much more to this story than that. I totally understand why this landed on the BBMC’s “top 20 American novels of the post-World War II period.”įrom the book blurb, this seems straight forward enough: giant, frog-like male humanoid wanders into kitchen of neglected housewife. This is not your average human/monster romance. "The water ran over the sand, one wave covering another like the knitting of threads, like the begetting of revenges, betrayals, memories, regrets."
