There is no secret that “Tobacco-Stained Mountain Goat” and “One Hundred Years of Vicissitude” made Andrez Bergen a favorite around this blog. There is hardly a
secret, since I’ve trumpeted often, wide and long enough, that I am falling way
behind with my readings, reviews and interviews and as much as I dislike this
fact Andrez Bergen’s “Who is Killing the Great Capes of Heropa?” is one of my most anticipated books still waiting
unread on the bookshelves. Well, it is time to put a stop to all the
complaining and start acting, therefore, I believe a reading goal for the
remaining of 2014 is in order, despite dropping altogether any such objectives
a while back. So, by the end of this year I will do my best to not only read “Who
is Killing the Great Capes of Heropa?”, but also Andrez Bergen’s new novel, “Depth Charging Ice Planet Goth”,
released today by Perfect Edge Books. And with that said I think it is time to start
putting some effort behind my attempt of achieving the said objective, but not
before congratulating Andrez Bergen on his new book release day.
A wild carnival of a novel that treads Kafkaesque territory and spills
over the rails to plumb the depths of a murder mystery.
She's a disturbed, quiet girl, but Mina wants to do
some good out there. It's just that the world gets in the way. This is
Australia in the 1980s, a haven for goths and loners, where a coming-of-age
story can only veer into a murder mystery.
