I'm going out on a limb here

by scinsavich (WorldCat user published 2014-04-21) Good Permalink

I'm not rating this book as good because of its content which is reprehensible. I think it is good be cause of its style, its groundbreaking daring subversion and its insight into the mind of a psychopath.
