A Willing Suspension of Sanity,
By
This review is from: Zuleika Dobson: or An Oxford Love Story (Mass Market Paperback)
A gay exercise in the writing of the most purple of prose? A parable of great cosmic truths and little human lies? Or a satire that would gladden the cold heart of Jonathan Swift? Beats the dickens out of me.."The Great Max" has written one 'snorter' of a novel here. The entire premise is absurd, the characters totally ridiculous and the outcome is totally mad. Yet I was swept up in the whole crazy affair of Zulieka coming to Judas. Every mad action is made both insane and somehow totally believable in the whirlpool that is her beauty. And so hangs the story... Is this book "great" literature? That I can't answer. But boy it sure was a heck of alot of fun to read!
