The comic came exactly as described! Packaging was AMAZING! It didn’t come in a sleeve or with a backboard, but I wasn’t expecting it since it wasn’t part of the description. Seller was considerate and responded to my concerns quickly regarding my unruly mailman and made sure this item was well protected during shipment! Excellent service, handling and product! And overall wonderful experience.

  • One hysterical and one developing talent

    In The Confederacy of Dunces, you read about wonderful flawed New Orleans characters. Having lived in and around New Orleans must of my adult life, I am fascinated how I hardly find a redeeming quality in any of the characters including the protagonist, but could not put this hysterical book down. Of course they are over exaggerated, and the situations absurd, but I find that I can visualize the scenarios easily. The prose and description are filled with essential language and realistic scenery. I have walked in the setting before. The other book, Neon Bible is a book created by a burgeoning talent.

  • A sensitive read

    In reading A Confederacy of Dunces, a brilliant comic portrayal of narcissism, codependency, and other outlandish ways we humans live our lives, I became fascinated with John Kennedy Toole. The Neon Bible, written when he was an adolescent, demonstrates sensitivity, observational skills, and an ability to describe inner and outer reality that are surprising in such a young writer. I was touched by the story and charmed to have read it.

  • Well written story with surprise ending.

    Surprisingly well written considering Toole was fifteen when he wrote it. The story line will keep your interest. It really takes you inside the head of an adolescent male and lets you experience his trials and tribulations. It ends too soon. It is a must read for anyone who enjoyed "A Confederacy of Dunces".

  • A must read for all and sundry!

    Wow! Totally different from the only other book he wrote! This has a bit of Faolkner and McCullers, as might be expected from a 16 year old student. The ruthlessness is new; and, jarring. He is evolving! What would the future have held; after Confederacy of Dunces? At least, his mother did not have to clean up after him! He was considerate. Sharon Agte
