Mr Breakfast: A Novel

Product Information

Few recent works of fiction in any genre have touched on the vagaries of life, love, and art more movingly or with deeper understanding. Patterson is shown three alternative lives and has the opportunity to visit each one before deciding on which life he wants to live in for good.

The artistry, colors, the combinations of colors, the imagination and execution of that imagination . For years, Patterson has worked as a comedian, hoping to make it big, but he has finally recognized that that’s never going to happen.

Così inizia la sinossi di un libro appena terminato e amato, scritto da Jonathan Carroll, un autore americano che se ancora non conoscete, vi consiglio vivamente di scoprire! The life of “Graham 2” seems ideal, until it takes first a dangerous, then a tragic, and finally a farcical turn.

Carroll is my favorite author, the one whose books always jump to the top of the TBR pile when they arrive. He accepted this fact now, and he had finally resolved to give the dream of being a famous comedian a decent burial during the trip. Author Carroll, who’s written several works of fantasy and has good command of the otherworldly, pushes the reader to consider whether we ever actually learn from our experiences. You might be thinking about info dumps, quotations from obscure German thinkers, and confusingly mind-bending problems you’ve never considered before, but Mr Breakfast by Jonathan Carroll is not at all like that.

it almost felt like the tattoos were speaking a whole new visual language to Patterson’s eyes and sensibilities.

In Carroll’s novels, art always changes the world, but there’s no guarantee that those changes will be for the best. Breakfast tells the story of Graham Patterson, a failed comedian that recently ended a relationship with the love of his life and has reached a crossroads in his life. I'm glad I read a novel like this to start off 2023 and it is good reminder that life is what you make it. Perfect for fans of magical realism with a free-flowing style like that of David Mitchell and Toshikazu Kawaguchi.The yolk should have just the finest cooked membrane so it'll hold its shape but be ready to explode with goodness at the merest prick of a fork or piece of toast. Two “what might have beens,” through which he can see how things would’ve played out on roads not taken. It’s true that this life gives him the company and comfort he longs for, but he can’t settle for it while still yearning for one spent making audiences laugh. Like the Russian matryoshka dolls, where one figure sits inside a larger one, which sits inside an even larger one, and so on, the tattoo he had chosen was of a bee inside the stomach of a frog inside the stomach of a hawk inside the stomach of a lion.
