Description:

Victor works as a guide at a colonial village, where he must stay in 18th-century costume. He moonlights as a con artist. His mother is in a nursing home, and in his spare time Victor visits her and listens to her stories about the good old days when she and his father--whom Victor never knew--were in and out of jail. Then she begins to imply that Victor was conceived by means of a miracle involving the sacred foreskin of Jesus. What's Victor to believe?

Entertaining

Fantastically morbid and entertaining at the same time. If you like atypical books, then this is the one for you.

One day it will be a cult classic!

Good Ol' Palahniuk is a great dark comedy writer and his books are a marvelous enjoy for some, but he is not for everyone; maybe you can be a Palahniuk fan too.
