The bugs understand the humans just enough for it to be a funny book for a human to read. Some of the bugs are named like exodice and julia child and barberosa okay but then some of them are named like ajax and ivory and hefty because they were born under the sink yeah right um. They have a lot of language that they can say to each other but it is all like run through human thought and language which is interesting and he didn't you know he's not interested in explaining that doesn't matter i guess i guess I'm going to go with my favorite joke from the unbreakable kimish mitt where one character accuses another character
Our Patron's Choice Poll for June had a theme: Junebugs! And this novel by Weiss about a roach colony attempting to assert control over the apartment in which they live is uhh...well it won the poll. So Craig read it. And now he's going to talk about it.
Caveat lictor: this book is a strange one (also it's got more explicit sexual content than you might expect!)
