  1. lol, what a great premise for a book

    "Reading Bone Horn is like watching a tight rope walker maintain their balance by holding a long pole with heavy weights on either side. Both the distance between the weights and their specific heaviness allow the tightrope walker to maintain their balance. In Prudence Bussey-Chamberlain's book one weight is the delightfully absurd case our private detective narrator has been hired to solve: Did Alice B. Toklas have a horn growing out of her head? The counterbalance is sudden death of the narratorโ€™s partner, May."
