Criticize Appertaining To Books Suicide Casanova

Wow!! This was a book I stumbled upon by accident at Barnes and Noble. I was in between 2 series (Eragon's Eldest and Bartimaeus) patiently waiting for the next release, and I was desperately seeking a new book to get into. When I came a cross this I over looked it a few times but kept coming back to it and before I knew it found myself purchasing it. I must say that this was a pleasant surprise and turned out to be a great read. A psychosexual thriller mixed with dark humor and truly f@ck-up.

I LOVED this book so much and it inspired me to go out and read some of his other things though I never did. "The Fuck Up" is next on my list from him. This book was edgy in a very nonchalant way. I loved how it could surprise you and intrigue you. Very unique and spooky in its own way.

What made this book most fascinating was how the author develops his characters. Nersesian is skillful at exploiting a wide range of emotions from his readers to turn against or root for the main characters at his will. A satisfying and quick read, the story explores some taboo subjects, e.g. the adult industry and the underground BDSM scene, which are surprisingly enveloped in themes both light and dark. The one I found to be most profound was the omnipresence of loneliness in a city teeming

OK, the lowdown:This is like candy: bourbon flavored candy. Easy to consume and with an edge going down the throat.Nersesian is a smart, funny writer, Everything seems to flow so easily. He deals with a semi-difficult time-shifting narrative here, alternating the anti-hero protagonist's present (2001) experiences as a successful lawyer and the aftermath/resumption of former loves with his neophyte past (1979-1983, roughly) when his career was starting and he began his obsessive relationships

This book was recommended to me by my boyfriend, and I absolutely enjoyed it! Started perfectly...I love when books start off right away, I couldn't it down! I look forward to reading other books from this author.

After Choke and this, I'm a little tired of reading about people with big sexual hangups. And, I'm tired of reading sex scenes. Staying at home with kids, reading these kinds of books makes me wonder if I'm turning into a 40 year old housewife. This isn't all that bad, and while it isn't nearly as good as his first book (none of his have been), it was still enjoyable to read. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone though.

Protagonist was wholly unsympathetic. He did one generous thing by letting Jeanie stay with him to get on her feet, but he didn't seem to have to sacrifice much to do it. Everything else he does is selfish and hurts others.I didn't feel his fall - my opinion of a successful life is apparently different than making a lot of money as a partner.Prose is fine, but at times too fancy. This isn't a book that inspires me to work to get obscure references.It took me years to actually finish this book.
