Stupid Children,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Jane lived happily in Miami Beach with her father until his failed suicide attempt and relocation to a mental hospital forced her into the foster care system. By chance, Jane is assigned to foster parents in central Florida who are deeply involved in the Second Day Believers&mdasha cult focused on the cleansing of mental impurities in their children, and the sanctity of the internal organs of farm animals. Jane is quickly initiated into the Second Day Believers, but her fathers lingering voice prevents her from becoming entirely indoctrinated. Despite Janes resistance, she is revered in the cult as the second coming of the late wife of Sir One, the leader of the Second Day Believers. Poised to rise through the ranks of the insane cult and marry their leader, Jane must make a difficult choice.Stupid Children is a story inspired by Katherine Dunns, Geek Love, and written in a voice similar to Donald Barthelme. Hilarious, offbeat, fastpaced and wildly imaginative, Zion, a doctor of psychology, imbues her characters with bizarre psychological abnormalities to create vivid, memorable eccentrics that leap from the page. With deadpan, wonderful ruminations on tattoos, the nature of coincidence, drug use, fatherdaughter relationships, mental illness, violence, and deviant sexuality, this novel is destined to become a cult favorite.
