It's a roller coaster of a narrative that is by turns hilarious, raunchy, slapstick, heartbreaking, tender, and sweet., "Bricuth's magnetically readable long song crackles with cynical laughter and pulses with all-too-human sadness."--Ray Olson, Booklist, Bricuth's magnetically readable long song crackles with cynical laughter and pulses with all-too-human sadness., "It's a roller coaster of a narrative that is by turns hilarious, raunchy, slapstick, heartbreaking, tender, and sweet." -- Johns Hopkins Magazine, "Bricuth's magnetically readable long song crackles with cynical laughter and pulses with all-too-human sadness." -- Booklist

Synopsis
O for a muse of napalm... Years in the making, As Long As It's Big is a stunning and unique poetic achievement. By turns rollicking, funny, and deeply moving, this dramatic poem tells a tragic story - the collapse of a marriage after the suicide of a child - within the topsy-turvy venue of a divorce court ruled by an alternately cynical and sentimental judge. John Bricuth cleanly balances sensitive portrayals of painful lives with hilarity, chaos, and occasionally ribald caricatures. Hugely entertaining and immensely readable, Bricuth's verse narrative will absorb anyone seeking to unravel the truths of modern family life.

    Could not be happier with my item or my transaction! I was able to purchase this vintage toy item that I had wanted in my childhood for my daughter and it was in flawless condition, even better than described! The packaging and shipping was done carefully and per my request, the seller agreed to delay shipping till I returned from a trip. Great communication and accommodation of my needs. Thank you!
