5.0 out of 5 stars Barringer breaks rules and norms, July 10, 2001
By 
Daivd Barringer challenges the reader (and himself) with his eclectic collection of stories, essays and exercises. In some ways reminiscent of 1001 Nights or Cantebury Tales, The Leap shows a writer of amazing breadth and depth, flexing his literary muscles and demonstrating his ability to adopt so many voices and genres. If you are bored with predictable writing that can be easily pigeon-holed, you should enjoy the challenge of The Leap.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thanks for the escape., July 10, 2001
By 
"spencerburke" (Royal Oak, MI USA) - See all my reviews
This collection of stories is very captivating, annoying, exciting, depressing, joyful, confusing, odd...

All and all you will be engrossed by the writing style and content that Barringer provides. For a sample of his writings check out his web site, it's what convinced me to purchase his book.
