![]() ![]() ![]() Did you hear about the thing with the rat? Did you hear about the thing with the cake (actually a tart, but I first heard about it as “that cake fucking scene”?) I heard those things and thought, oh yeah. You may have heard a few things about Undermajordomo Minor. The covers all look the same, and the title plays with opposites in the same way The Sisters Brothers did (brother/sister, major/minor) but if you are expecting The Sisters Brothers set in a castle, or Ablutions with a butler rather than a bartender, hoo boy, you better sit down. Undermajordomo Minor is all of those things, but also nothing like his previous two novels, Ablutions and The Sisters Brothers. His writing has been described as dark, intense, grim, poetic, bold, and funny. Thanks to: House of Anansi Press for the review copy and CJ for the “in.” ![]() Read this if you like: Dark comedy, dark fairy tales, darkness, happy endingsĬheck out Undermajordomo Minor on Goodreads ![]()
