Shred Wallaces Oblivion, Pynchons V, Leyners Sugar Frosted Nutsack* and Ouredniks Instant Propice. Gather in a 2 Gallon Ziploc Brand Freezer Bag. Shake, half-bake. And heres this subtly crusted bilingual English/French-Canadian novel entitled Kissing Number.

Keywords? Sure! Pseudo-thermodynamics. Limerence. High finance as an art form. Cuban cattlehead refrigerators.

Why you, the well-advised, polymath reader ought to spend hard-earned money on this book on the sole basis of self-proclaimed cross-references and a few keywords is beyond reason. To tell you the truth, youre currently holding a pure akratic object in your hands, yet reasonably priced at single-digit dollars and 99 cents.

Good luck with that one.

* This novel by Leyner isnt yet published as I go to press, the influence here being non-causal, making the two books entangled in a quantum mechanical sense. Cant wait to see how The Sugar Frosted Nutsack turns out as it will instantly determine the opposite content of KN. Exciting!!!

Later note: Leyners book just came out a minute ago. Pure genius. Well, so much for this book! Put it back on the shelf, now.
