Mislaid

 By Nell Zink

Well, this book was hilarious and weird. Not exactly what I expected, but also made sense in retrospect. I guess I didn't expect it to be about racial issues, though. I like to compare it to a Jane Austen novel, only with more sex and drugs. The Austen part refers to the way she criticizes society. The rest of it is far from Austen. More like a mix of a soap opera and a spy comic book. As I said, it was weird. And hilarious. Recommended. [256 pp.]
