Excerpts

The Book of M
by John Gould

If I was a savage man I'd make this dream come true, lure someunsuspecting Meg or Mimi up here and force her to play along. not that that would to any good, of course-she has to want it. Anyhow, I'm far from savage. Obsessed maybe, even perverted, but not savage. I'd say I'm about as gentle as any man who handles a monkey wrench all day and himself all night could possibly be.
