Greg Kramer (2) (1962–2013)

Greg Kramer is new to me. He is an author, playwright, and director. Multi-talented. And an engaging, very funny mystery writer. The Pursemonger of Fugu is set in an illegal art gallery in the basement of a warehouse. The cast of characters are part of the alternative (read cutting edge?) art world in Toronto. The characters are struggling artists with various sexual proclivities, a variety of mental health symptoms and diagnoses, and unusual forms of artistic expression. The central show more character enters this world at 52-years-old after a lifetime of upper class conventionality. The combination is often hilarious. I recommend this book. I am reading his other books as soon as I can. show less
