A review by capincus
Venus on the Half-Shell by Philip José Farmer

5.0

This book is perfect. In the sense that it reads exactly as a novel written by the fictional Kilgore Trout would read. It has shadows of Vonnegut especially his wit and penchant for random irrelevant historical details, and shadows of his semi-biographical counterpart the unknown author who wrote dozens of profound novels designed to be serialized in porn magazines. Definitely worth reading for any fan of Vonnegut.
