Bridget McNulty

“A profound yet whimsical character study.”

// April 8th, 2009 // Blogs, Reviews, Strange Nervous Laughter

I’ve decided to warn you ahead if I’m posting about a book review, by putting the title in quote marks. I won’t post about all of them, I promise, but this one is just too delicious to resist…

It appeared on both Genre Go Round Reviews and The World of Romance (you can read the whole thing on either), but this is my favourite part:

“STRANGE NERVOUS LAUGHTER is a profound yet whimsical character study that takes a deep look at what is love and how we behave when we believe we are in love. Each of the key characters are fully developed so that the reader accepts their musings and misbehavior due to their conviction they are in love; they act out of character when they feel that way. Thus the audience obtains a powerful analysis of love inside an amusing tale as the cast members tend to delude themselves that this is the one and act eccentric and quirky while under love’s magical spell. Bridget McNulty provides an excellent contemporary tale that brings South Africa to life while insisting love’s behavior is universal.”

*sigh!*
