On page 40 and I’ve already witnessed a plethora of misreadings from these guys—not culturally, just as far as reading comprehension goes. Immediately disappointing book.

Immediately loving it. His writing style is primed for the screen—I’m amazed there hasn’t been a successful movie.

Fascinating to read this right after the little book “The Boy, the Mole, the Fox, and the Horse.” McCarthy’s dialogue style is identical to Mackesy’s, and the plot line is similarly aimless over incredible scenes with simple, heartfelt characters. Only, obviously, one is appropriate for all ages, and the other isn’t appropriate for any age.
