Has anyone read Monster Love by Carol Topolsky?

I've never cried and hated yuppies so much in my life.

The format in which it was written was amazing though. I hadn't read anything like it since the Seymoure Tapes.

Your thoughts?

im so looking forward to this. it's (i guess) the kind of book that i'd love. but im still undecided if i have the time and concentration to read a book in english. i guess i'll buy it anyway.

another disturbing book about yuppies springs to mind..american pyscho

It's amazing really.

Post-modernism but without the unnecessary pretention and author-ego.

I read a book about ten years ago, when I was in my early teens called The Dumb House, which was kind of similar only almost more fucked up. It was about this guy who gets obsessed with how language develops so basically a) starts torturing mute kids and b)decides to raise his own set of twins in silence. They develop their own language aged about 5, so he tortures them and kills them. It kind of put me off the whole "parents murdering children" genre.
