review 1: This is a book I would be happy to read once and then pass along to someone that I felt was having a bad day/week/month/year. It's about finding your feet again - sometimes in the weirdest places. Maybe your inspiration comes from a French KISS cover band, a drive-through lady who moonlights as a drive-through speaker sex phone operator, or a crazy alcoholic magician who may or may not have turned your friend into a mouse.
review 2: The world of Fight Song is at once marvelously strange and uncomfortably familiar. Anyone who has received pin or plaque from an employer after years of service that were never intended to be so long will find an avatar in our protagonist, Bob, and cheer for him to beat the game. As Bob gets drawn into a preposterous vortex revolvin... moreg around an unstable neighbor and a vengeful magician, he faces an unfulfilled life that is all too real. Joshua Mohr brilliantly juxtaposes the magical with the mundane and there are just some unforgettable moments, both weird and wonderful. Nacho cheese Doritos used to be my favorite. I'm not sure I'll be able to eat them anymore. less
