Spurs on high-heeled sneakers -- gotta love it!,
By Mrkopalj Baricevac (USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bitches Ride Alone (Paperback)
Flawed, uneven, idiosyncratic -- and damn brilliant! Buy it and jump on for a ride full of surprises. Even the most butt-chapped cynic will find they've tender spots unguessed at under Chester's whip-hand wielding words like snapping leather. But for all the astringent clarity and cantering alacrity of her writing, Laura C's work is a celebration of romance, albeit romance with eyes open, lights on, and post-childhood: a wry mix of love-shy-but-lusting, wary-but-hopeful, soignee-but-spastic marriage of desire and experience. Bitches Ride Alone not only captures what it is to be adult and taking a chance on love in this new present era but brings it back alive from the jungle of id and ego. If you're a woman, I imagine you'll envy the spunk and brio of Chester's writing; as a man, I was happily chagrined to learn from it anew what a powerfully wonderful mystery it is that women don't rule the world while keep men as semi-tamed pets...
