Words of praise for Weed Weed is a brilliantly written comedic novel while at the same time a harsh criticism of modern consumerist society. The lyrically attractive writing style spoke to me and does a good job of creating a vision of this fictitious yet very real world and company. It reminded me of Terry Gilliam's movie Brazil! from 1985. If you, like the protagonist, sometimes find yourself drowning in the rat race for conformity and mediocrity, this book is for you I Immediately bought a second copy to give to a friend! "... it’s
really witty and very strong ... I would compare the writing
to Robert Rankin, or a really satirically biting Tom Sharpe, and will
say again that I’m really impressed by it" " .... it proceeded
to the advanced stages of the [selection] process." "It's not boring
but I suppose you've placed it already." "It is the funniest
and only novel I have written."
