By turns hilarious, heartrending, violent, and tender, it is like no book you've read before. A profoundly unsettling book., "An absolutely mesmerizing novel that will leave you stunned and conflicted. Blackburn is an emotionally challenging read, so consider yourself warned.

A profoundly unsettling book." -- The Washington Post Book World, "A bracing antidote to the pop sociologies of mass murder it so deftly skewers. The boldly abusive mixture of hilarity, despair, and cartoon eschatology recalls Flannery O'Connor and "Miss Lonelyhearts."" --"Kirkus Reviews" "A profoundly unsettling book. . .Its sense of despair and bitter satire will recall "Miss Lonelyhearts," its voice brings to mind Jim Thompson's chatty amiable monsters...By turns hilarious, heartrending, violent and curiously tender, it is like no book you've read before." --James Sallis, "The Washington Post Book World" "A horror novel of contemporary American culture that takes an unexpected angle of attack and goes on beyond Thomas Harris. . ."Blackburn"'s a spellbinder." --"Locus", An absolutely mesmerizing novel that will leave you stunned and conflicted.

Synopsis
Blackburn is a serial killer. But, like the rest of us, he confronts the same hypocrisies and frustrations of the world and, unable to help himself, or at the mercy of circumstance, he crosses a dangerous threshold--and he kills. In this novel, we meet many of his twenty-one victims: law enforcers, writers, adulterers, auto mechanics, and other liars. And each crime reveals another side of his psyche . . . and his disturbing rationale for murder.

- r***1 (179)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book was exactly as described and arrived quickly. The only problem is a recurring one with this seller and other similar sellers - the book is poorly packaged in a plastic envelope and gets heavily bumped in shipping. I would like to see the books wrapped before shipment, but I understand this can't be done for cost reason. Luckily it isn't an expensive book, and I will continue to purchase basic books from this seller. A+++++
- 4***1 (1640)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseBook arrived quickly and is pretty close to "Very Good" description. Value priced and I'm glad I made the purchase as this is an excellent read. However, the book was mailed loose inside an over-sized plastic bag without any protection. Wrapped in a bubble wrap jacket would be a big help. A book can take a beating in USPS transit without some buffer. I can't tell if the bumps and dings were original or occurred in transit. I'd prefer to pay for shipping than have it sent with no protection.
