"A fun, if somewhat dated, novel by one of the more popular experimental fiction authors of the 60's and 70's. Barthelme uses the tale of Snow White----both the Disney version and the original fairy tale----as a prop for his textual and philosophical experiments. Although I like his short fiction better, this is a still a strong and fairly important novel of its day."
"Imagine my disappointment when I found out that other copies of this book had a picture Snow White's arse and my copy was sadly arse-less. After getting over my G-rated cover and getting past my anti-metafiction stigma Snow Whites little tale made me giggle with delight.
"Some things aren't poignant at all and that pornographic pastry is one of them."
And really seven men with one woman? There is no home shower big enough or woman for that matter."
"my first experience with barthelme, i'm embarrassed to say. david foster wallace was greatly influenced by him. very experimental, but completely lucid, at the same time. and, did i mention, hilarious?"
