I also thought there was something unproportional about Florine's upper body.<br /><br />Actually, as I was waiting for the picture to load (I have an extremely slow connection) and all I could see was the head on the right, I had a moment to wonder if it was the head of a woman or a man.<br /><br />I'm still kind of wondering. Maybe this is one of the "answers" the book is supposed to give us. I want the answer to that horrible dress Jim (?) is wearing. Are we supposed to believe that any self-respecting drag queen let alone woman would ever wear that atrocity, even in the privacy of their Hell-inspired home?beggar1015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4660994103025515363.post-90607906101330396822009-07-11T15:42:27.835-07:002009-07-11T15:42:27.835-07:00I cannot even figure out - from the front cover ar...I cannot even figure out - from the front cover art or the back cover blurb - which characters are men and which are women.Nicole "Gidget" Kalsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03812924528578021534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4660994103025515363.post-10412589998728474422009-07-11T09:43:52.861-07:002009-07-11T09:43:52.861-07:00Appears to be the East German female shot-put tea...Appears to be the East German female shot-put team of the 72' Olympics celebrating their medal sweep back at the village.

Why yams? Perhaps only Cathy has the answer...<br /><br />And what about poor Clide? He doesn't even get a mention on the back blurb?<br /><br />This is a particularly hideous cover, although it looks like it is set in a particularly hideous room. As best I can make out, Clide is reclining on some kind of park bench (or the world's most non-Euclidian bed), which is sitting on atrocious green striped carpet, in a room with urine-stained walls. I think if I lived there I'd be driven to cross-dressing, or worse.Tulsenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4660994103025515363.post-22868431289231897622009-07-10T22:13:00.351-07:002009-07-10T22:13:00.351-07:00I'm so confused as to what this book's abo...I'm so confused as to what this book's about.JamiSingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12756726189949304645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4660994103025515363.post-26970036659735975232009-07-10T20:42:09.427-07:002009-07-10T20:42:09.427-07:00I like that they had to hy-phenate the title on th...I like that they had to hy-phenate the title on the back cover.Jake Kesingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01836372371963908349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4660994103025515363.post-54062877849573995542009-07-10T18:44:35.131-07:002009-07-10T18:44:35.131-07:00Sooo, things happen and someone wants answers.
