Fight Club meets Patience meets Killing and Dying meets Mimsy Were the Borgoroves. Very high WTF-factor. Are there acting classes that are like this? If so, is this what acting does to people? Or is this what happens to would-be theatre kids, if they're not exposed to theatre at an early enough stage? In any case, it makes acting classes seem much more terrifying and creepy than I thought possible. Drnaso's art is reminiscent of the world through the eyes of someone slightly nearsighted. I can kind of tell who is who, but the faces are indistinct until they come very close. Would probably be a good book club pick. A great present for any theatre lover or aspiring actor in your life. I think my favorite character is the dog.
