Canon

I promise that you have never read a book like Canon. It's a scorchingly brilliant, wildly funny, and deeply moving epic. I loved it so much that upon finishing Canon, I immediately began rereading it -- John Green The funniest, most immersive book I have read in such a long time . . . Truly original, brimming with humour, beauty, heartbreak, magic, and sharp language that will strike you deep down in your soul. Lewis has taken the hero's journey and breathed new life, new wit, and new possibility into the genre and just like the best epics, you will make away bewildered by the prose but maybe have learned something necessary about living. In my house this is an instant classic -- Danez Smith I wish I could spend a thousand more pages with the narrator of Canon, whose keenness, kindness, associative brilliance, storytelling authority, and crow-black humour make every line of this utterly singular novel a surprise and a delight. Lewis excels at translating the unspeakable dimensions of our living into language . . . [An] unprecedented page turner [e]ven at its most painful moments, Canon filled me with overwhelming joy . . . I have never read a novel like CANON - no one has -- Karen Russell
