Summary: Honk if you love Aphrodite
Comment: Awesome book Dan! My book club bought 3 and shared them and we all had a blast with it! Every little inuendo hit home and I especially liked the vision in my mind of the Gods on Catskill. The fate of being stuck in perpetuity in chains and submission was a befitting end. Great job, Keep it up I will wait for the next one. Mark

Summary: fine reading
Comment: Honk if you love aphrodite was a masterpiece. The way the author used homeric style in the body was intense. It takes skill and panache to create good literature, and even more skill and panache to create memorable literature. If you can handle this gripping book, you can fully understand the brilliance of the writer. I love you dan, and katy and delilah

Summary: A divine read, if you'll pardon the pun
Comment: I recently read this book aloud during a long car trip and had all occupants, including myself, in stitches. Here is an author whose affection and understanding for the foibles of New York City's underside is only matched by his penchant for the eccentric and willingness to take his word usage out on a limb. The meter and feel of the Homeric-style epic ballad rings absolutely true, as can only really be ascertained from reading it aloud, as we did, and Weiss's outlandish characters and acerbic asides only showcase what is, in the end, a rather touching love story that owes nothing to divine intervention. We were particularly fond of the real Myron, left lurching drunkenly around Coney Island bereft of friends and purpose, an incredibly bald look at Manhattan's S&M club scene (if you've ever been to Hellfire, you'll understand) and the subway Amazons Tess and Shameeka. Weiss's comments concerning the late JFK are not to be missed, either; in true Homeric style, he doesn't waste any time making a political point poetically. This is a smart, funny read that will make you think and probably help you with your next crossword puzzle. Take it for what it is. (Just to set the record straight -- "Roaches" is still my favorite of the Weiss lexicon).
