Now that reviews are starting to roll in for my book, I thought I would add my own unbiased opinion.

I have concluded that my novel The Marriage of True Minds (http://www.unbridledbooks.com/trueminds.html) is the greatest short novel ever written. To explicate my criteria and decision-making process, let's examine some of the other fine contenders:

Heart of Darkness (Joseph Conrad): I never laughed once.

Breakfast at Tiffany's (Truman Capote): Does not appear to be set in Minneapolis.

The Death of Ivan Ilyich (Leo Tolstoy): The letters in this book look funny and I'm not entirely sure it was written in English.

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (James Joyce): Has more than five words in the title.

To the Lighthouse (Virginia Woolf): Was not written by me.

So, to sum up, The Marriage of True Minds is the greatest short funny novel set in Minneapolis written by me in English with a title of not more than five words.

To be fair, I have to add that the book is absolutely no use as a doorstop or paperweight.
