5.0 out of 5 stars
The best book I have ever read.,
By martin yoon (los angeles, ca United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beam Me Up, Scotty (Paperback)
Awesome, incredible. So funny. I never laughed so hard in my life, and really thought about what I read. There is sex, drugs, murder, tension, an outrageous bunch of characters who I loved. I can't believe this book is not a movie. Like Taxi Driver with humor and it actually says something about our sick society. If you read one book this year, make it this. Scotty rocks.

Addiction, murder, and 12 step programs,
By
This review is from: Beam Me Up, Scotty (Paperback)
"Beam Me Up, Scotty" is one of my all time favorite novels. Guinzburg portrayal of addiction to twelve-step programs, sex, food, crack and even murder is as powerful as it is hilarious. Guinzburg's style and imagery is harsh and brilliant! I can't wait until more of his work is published in the US.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Sublime send-up of our self-help addled language and world!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Beam Me Up, Scotty (Paperback)
Michael Guinzburg is an undiscovered writer of genius. A lyrical stylist with a richly deserved core of devotees (mostly in Europe where he is celebrated), his prose in Scotty nails the language of the Twelve Steps and our self-help addled culture with sublime hilarity. Read this book. Do it.
