Bunyan's Guide to the Great American Wildlife
Bunyan's Guide to the Great American Wildlife | Quentin Canterel
3 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
What happens when the Manhattan zoo empties its cages? John, part radicalised anarchist, part ticking time bomb, is haunted by a particular story, that of Willow, a 9-year old mute who flees to New York after her brutal rape. The only way his girlfriend, Felicity, can stop the clock counting downis by disentangling the riddle of their pasts, before their entwined futures are blown to pieces. Quentin Canterel's second novel presents a collage of voices, dead and alive, in a unique and unnerving novel that experiments with form, structure and language. Truly a mystery shrouded in an enigma.

Bunyan's Guide to the Great American Wildlife has a hard, but important story to tell – it's a family tragedy, but also a personal tragedy that drags in everyone around it and eats them whole: http://bit.ly/2XdLmM2

1/5: For most of this book, I didn't really know what was going on, and I didn't really care. The characters were all basically the same person as none of them had a distinct personality. The worst part, though, is that the author included four separate sexual assaults, all of which were done purely for shock value and not because they did anything to further the plot or character development.
