So Absurd It Must Be True



So Absurd It Must Be True
by Victoria Ray

I have been tempted to compare Victoria Ray to Chaucer because of the witty form that she gave to those briliant ideas, but then Samuel Beckett would have been shadowed when the absurd in this book is so similar to his.

So Absurd It Must Be True is not an ordinary reading, but the most interesting book that I have ever read regarding the style, the vision and the writing. You are not able to get bored within its pages and your mind keeps wondering how can someone envelope a habitual fact in such an appealing shell.

Another unique characteristic of this book is that it keeps changing from a chapter to another, so that you can’t predict what is ’the next stop’ in this travel throught the absurdity of human life and society.
            
Victoria Ray’s book is also a funny and easy read because it offers a ’lesson’ after each chapter, so that even the least engaged reader could get the essence of the story. In my opinion, So Absurd It Must Be True is the best way to get your mind around and see beyond the appearances, especially when they are so beautifully wrapped.
