the beginning, I found Banis humour heavy and passive aggressive It s fun to play being politically incorrect, but after too many jokes, you start to sound insecure and annoying In the end, I found him sharp and hilarious, and sometimes, I frowned, rolled my eyes and laughed at the same quip or extravagance.Sure, he dropped it a notch in the meantime but it s also because as heavy and ferocious as the fag and Neanderthal jokes are, it s just that Stanley and Tom ...I can t help it I love cliffhanger endings.Great book Very witty dialogue The least sexually arousing sex scene I ve ever read, but somehow it made sense.I love Stanley I love Tom.But seriously, the dialogue is out of this world hilarious.I quite admire this novel for beingdifferent I admit I was not really aware of the world

is probably one of the less dreamy book I read by Victor J Banis, means that it s pretty down to earth and direct and open, but probably also among my favorite, Lola Dances still has the first place, but this one is very near I like Victor J Banis style, but one thing I almost always regretted, that in the end the two main characters don t walk toward the sunset together only Lola did, and this is
