Two Flutes Playing

[Bilbo]

I just finished this book by Andrew Ramer and found it very interesting. Although its main copyright is 1997, there was an earlier version published in spiral binding in 1990. I would be interested in comments from other people around here who have read it. Thanks.

I read this book a couple of years ago. I thought the characters were banal and the plot utterly cliched.

 

I did, however, think that the scene was hot where Andre shoved a knife into the neck of Marcel, out of a desire for vengence for Marcel having raped his grandmother, to be pretty hot, especially when Andre pissed into Marcel's neck wound to make the blow extra humiliating and painful. How many loads did you get out of that scene!?!?!?!

Alas, the entertainment value of your posts sank to the basement after that maudlin display over the late, great World Escort Sean.

 

May as well take up embroidery if you haven't already.

I LOVE it! SO PASSIONATE! Is this really in the novel? If it is I want to read it! }(

Well I didn't know Sean, so I can't opine about how great he was, but your opinion of Doug69's posts are just than "an opinion", one that I disagree with. I see nothing wrong about celebrating death as it is just a phase of life, like being born. Those who insist on pissing and moaning and wailing are the ones that make death maudlin, not those who laugh at it and who see it as just another milestone of life that has been reached.

LOL!! NOT Doug69!! He is one of the lively ones here. This place is beginning to sound like a little society of tea drinking old ladies gathered in a circle sewing quilts. Tssking and tasking and discussing/recommending/dismissing both escorts (especially) and other posters like a bunch of priggish little school marms (head mistress Miss Flower herself!)

 

Romper Room has nothing on this place. OOOOOHHHHH! I love you and you love me (my apologies to Barney) and let's all meet in the hooker boy bar by the sea! Stick our prissy little upturned noses in the air and decide who is worthy of being a whore boy for sale and who is worthy of hiring a whore boy. Those boys we choose will have their asses kissed and be praised and worshipped and those not worthy will be summarily dissed and dismissed.

Are You Talking to Me?

Well of course you do, now that your leader Doogie pointed the way--clearly you are smitten with Doogie and this is your monkey see, monkey do routine all over again.:+

 

Of course, Woodlaw will chime in next--sorta like the 3 stooges. Hmmm...could it be?

Thanks so much for the critique. Someday, I hope to be able to follow in your footsteps by practicing the high comedic art of trolling around the Internet in order to find and post cartoons of animals jumping up and down and moving their eyes. Gosh, it is so hilarious when you do that here once a week here.

 

Until I'm able to reach these peaks of genius, I guess I'll just have to resort to my low-brow, "maudlin" attempts at humor.

Actually, there is no plot per se in the book at all. Intentionally. There is a bit of myth making, but it doesn't take up more than a third or so of the book. I suggest that if you'd like a philosophical tome with a lot of violence in it you would do better to read the Bib....Well, I don't want this thread to be moved, so I'll leave that thought incomplete.

 

The ostritch (was it?) cracked me up, too. LOL.

 

Once again, has anyone else read this book and actually have any informed comments on it?

Yes, I see your point.

Okay, carry on.
