ladybirder 's review for:
A Horse Walks into a Bar
by David Grossman
Why the long face?
This book really makes you a part of the audience. You go through so many emotions when reading this 'stand-up' act, and it is all reflected in the expressions and actions of the other spectators. With everyone else you feel awkward, exasperated, you want him to get to the point, you wonder how this is supposed to be funny, and you finally give in and listen.
It's another book I've read from the Man Booker International Shortlist which is short and intense (set over only an hour or two), best devoured in as few sittings as possible to get the full impact.
