Reviews
Meno shows his mastery of the short form with his twenty latest tales of whimsy and loss. Meno's best stories fuse together postmodern ideas with subjects that have concerned literature through the ages, such as love, heartbreak, death, and malaise . . . Intriguing and eccentric, Meno's stories never distract with their surreal flights of fancy but instead draw the reader in deeper to their magical reconfiguration of the modern world. Twenty different graphic artists provide idiosyncratic illustrations that perfectly complement this daring collection., Mr. Meno's fiction pops with the energy of youth, its purity and heart . . . Mr. Meno has a finely tuned grasp of the fumblings--romantic, existential and otherwise, that make up the first twenty-five years of our lives., The author of Hairstyles of the Damned and The Boy Detective Fails is back with a handsome new collection, pairing twenty short stories with original artwork from illustrators like Charles Burns and Nick Butcher. Meno is at his best when he mixes raw emotional realism with tender insight., These playful, postmodern stories find the Chicago author's artistry reinforced by illustrators who provide divergent perspectives on his prose . . . The range of illustrations adds to the volume's appeal, but Meno's writing is strong enough to stand on its own . . . There's a profound empathy in Meno's work that makes it more than just a stylistic exercise., Meno knows just how to press a variety of emotional buttons ranging from giddy delight to not-quite-hopeless despair. Highly recommended.
