Book Review of Breakfast of Champions

Breakfast of Champions
reviewed on


The story of an absurd confluence of events in a Midwest town is simply an excuse for the author to comment on America circa 1973. The story is dark and at times shocking, but overall it is a good read. The sketches sprinkled throughout the book add a unique twist and the irony can sometimes hit you in the face. Good book, although it is not for everyone. Very dark themes and some graphic material.
