The First Bad Man

Artistic dynamo Miranda July funnels her incredible imagination into the quirks of Cheryl Glickman, her main character, as well as into the other characters who fall into Cheryl’s path. The result is a delightful and original debut novel, The First Bad Man. I won’t spoil any surprises, but I will say that this book is electric, like nothing I’ve ever read before. I found myself in complete awe as July bravely and skillfully paints a picture of what it’s like to inhabit someone’s psyche. Sexual fantasies, fleeting and random love, and plenty of unorthodox relationships will thrill. I promise this is a book you will never forget! - Summer
