Book Reviews of M31: A Family Romance
Book Review: incest and ufo's
Summary: 3 Stars
Richard Wright is a very talented writer. I would compare him to some of my other favorites like Denis Johnson and Chuck Palanhniuk. This book is probably not his best but due to his excellent writing style its worth a read. I won't give any plot summary other than to say this story follows a husband and wife team of ufologists and their inbreed family. The book loses its focus towards the end and some major plot holes are left unanswered. But if you like any of the afformentioned authors I'd check this book out.
Summary of M31: A Family Romance
Dash and Dot?husband and wife; self-professed descendants of aliens from the M31 galaxy?are the world?s most in-demand lecturers on the UFO circuit. They live in a decommissioned church in the middle of America, with a radar dish on its steeple and a spaceship in the sanctuary. Their children have the run of the house when Dash and Dot are away. When a couple of UFO groupies show up looking for the extraterrestrial duo, they find instead a nuclear family?or rather, a family gone nuclear?whose comically discomforting world resembles our own as much as it does another world altogether.Domestic Life Books
