I’ll start, so as a teen I stumbled across a book called," Someone comes to town, someone leaves town." The synopsis caught me as it’s about a man with a mountain as a fathera washing machine as a mother and one brother that is dead and trying to harm him. I’ll admit some of the technical terms were too much for my developing mind but it has stuck with me all these years.
What is the wackiest / craziest book you’ve read and did you enjoy the ride?
The Curio Shop by William Kotzwinkle, it’s a collection of short stories. I dare anyone to read it and imagine that I got it from the library at 11 years old.
That story appears in his collection Jewel of the Moon; I don’t know if that collection was renamed The Curio Shop in later printings or if it’s a foreign edition. I do love me some Kotzwinkle, though.
