The burial of the cat toward the beginning of the book is well worth the price of admission (David Sedaris gives a plug for the "burial tuck" on the cover of the book). It's not often that words on a page make me laugh at loud, but Edgerton is one of the folks who can do it (Sedaris is another). Add to that the character of the Bible salesman who muses on the disturbing inconsistencies of the Scriptures he's hawking and...well...I'm sold!

Obviously, we must all buy this and read it and tell the world about Clyde. A fairly good read. I was a little disappointed at the lack of his humor (haven't read in years since Raney and Walking Across Egypt). Still, the characters were wonderful and the story pulled you along in many avenues of thought. no reviews | add a review
