The Mustache is riveting, for a look at one man’s potential descent into madness… or is everyone else mad?

I’d grabbed it to read because a movie has been made of it, and frankly I can’t see how it would work nearly as well as the book. So much of what happens in the book is purely speculative, and wild flights of fancy don’t really translate well without suffocating voiceover narration.

That said, I’ll give it a shot if I can find it on DVD.

Class trip is neither good nor bad. It’s a quick read, though afterward I was left wondering why the anthologers who put these novels together chose that to lead with. I suppose to have the latter novel look even better by comparison.
