Shannon Webb-Campbell Reviews I Met Death & Sex Through My Friend, Thom Meuley by thom vernon
thom vernon invites readers to meet sex and death
I Met Death & Sex Through My Friend, Tom Meuley, thom vernon. Guernica Editions, 2024.
Wildly audacious. Hilarious yet devastating. Punchy and raw. I’ve never read a novel like thom vernon’s I Met Death & Sex Through My Friend, Tom Meuley. As a novelist, vernon breaks all the rules because he knows them. It’s why the story leaps off the page. This novel begs to be a film, and I shouldn’t be surprised considering vernon’s backstory of being an actor-turned-writer.
