The Ginger Man
by J.P. Donleavy
I don't know if I can even count that I read this book considering I just skimmed it. It wasn't for me. At all. I'm also not sure who exactly this book is for. Within the first few pages he had already punched his wife in the face and attempted to murder his daughter. I am curious (read very concerned) about the type of people who read that and think 'Awesome! Let's keep reading!' I then skimmed the rest of the book which was full of truncated, jolting prose that outlines the life of a sex-crazed, cheating drunk. Not to mention the absolutely horrid way that women are portrayed as stupid, emotional punching bags. Just a horrible, horrible book.
