5.0 out of 5 stars Give it a try!, February 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Mike's Corner: Daunting Literary Snippets from (Paperback)
If you're reading this review, you're probably a fan of Phish, like me. I think the stories in this book are phabulous. They are full of witty plays-on-words and some of the most hillarious stuff I've ever read. Admittedly, they are off-the-wall, and are only for acquired tastes. The story "PS" is a letter forecasting a fence being broken. The story "Suite # 102" is about rolling around on awnings, and "The case of the Yellow Ballots" contains the word "ballotwomanbeatereater." Need I say more? It sounds silly, but You'll have to see for yourself. Check it out at your bookstore.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gordon has reached a new level in modern literature, March 15, 2000
By 
Joe Piasta (Pennsylvania, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mike's Corner: Daunting Literary Snippets from (Paperback)
Few people in the world have the imagination of Mike Gordon. While reading through his collection of daydreams and short stories one can't help but imagine just what goes on inside his head. In a time where it is difficult, if not impossible, to be original Mike Gordon has achieved just that. These motley tales take you to the outer limits of your mindscape and push you to think in ways you never thought possible.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Randomness...Just Like His Band, Phish, March 1, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Mike's Corner: Daunting Literary Snippets from (Paperback)
Having been a fan of Phish for several years, it's hard not to be critical of their accomplishments. Only those who enjoy the absurd and those who seek to understand it will fully enjoy it. Some of his snippets make for good bedtime stories for the kids.
