Description
Eminently human and ultimately joyful, The Mirror of Monsters and Prodigies is a compelling novel full of humor, pathos, revulsion, and love. Mixing fact and imagination, this fictional oral history about “human oddities” includes figures such as Aesop, Catherine the Great, Tom Thumb, and Jo-Jo The Russian Dog-Faced Boy in a provocative story that extends from Ancient Egypt to 18th Century England to 20th Century America.
