5.0 out of 5 stars
A taut thriller, brilliantly written. Colorful & complex.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Irregulars (Paperback)
Colorful and complex, Jacovsky has captured the jagged screamings of the human mind and from that cacophony has fashioned a brilliant fugue. Obviously drawing on her experience, Jacovsky mines the jagged terrain between normalcy and insanity and in her brilliant finale, comes to the conclusion that there may be little difference between each side of the couch. The often spare literary style somehow manages to convey wonderfully the underbelly of New York City at the turn of the millenium; pimps, prostitutes, sexual deviates, transexuals, transvestites, using it all as a metaphor for a mind, and perhaps a culture gone awry. Magnifcent in its conception, superb in its execution, this first novel by Jacovsky should be read by anyone who is compelled to examine the truth, however terrifying it may be.
