Two great novels in one, this is a magical blend of surreal fantasy, grotesque imagery, and strange humor.Rawhead and Bloody Bones is the hilarious story of two ghosts who spend their afterlife entertaining the spirit world with their comedy routine. On the opening night of their show, the audience swarms the stage and attempts to steal Rawhead's sense of humor. A conspiracy unfolds and Rawhead makes a startling discovery. In Elusive Plato the main character Bartleby has a very strange and bizarre existence. His father commits suicide by hanging himself with piano wires; his mother is infatuated with him; and when his sister looses her virginity to another man he kills her in a jealous rage. Eventually Bartleby meets a man who claims he can make Bartleby's dreams come true -- for a price.
