Summary: ...
Review: ...There are (what some would consider)philosophical points to be made, but they have the ring of what a couple of college honors student freshmen would come up with in about 20 minutes.

An analogy in the realm of symbolism would be "Natural Born Killers". Yes it employed symbolism. But the kind of completely-not-subtle 3rd grader symbolism that just makes you cringe instead of making it's point.

I rarely write negative reviews, but I am highly disappointed that I spent money on this....

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Well-enjoyed
Review: I loved this book! The humor is very intelligent yet nonsensical. My friends have enjoyed reading this when they come over. The only problem I had with it was that I felt it was overpriced. But I enjoyed it nonetheless.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I positively cherish this book.
Review: I never thought a clam would make me laugh and think so much about life. It is truly one of the cleverest and most original things I have ever read. I look forward to more stories from Erik Quisling.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Is This A Joke?
Review: I received this book in a box of donated material from our library, ie, books that they can't even rent out for free. Yes it's true, anyone can get published! I'll bet Erik Quisling feels pretty proud of himself, having aquired the status of Published Author, with his story about a Loser Clam right up there with other gems of literature. I still don't know if it's some sick, eight dollar and ninety-nine cent joke played on us by Warner Books, or if there are chunky New Agers in Birkenstocks discussing this book; "Aren't we all really clams, in search of something more, but keeping sealed up?" Need I go into the illustrations, which consist of a kindergarten-style drawing of a clam on each page. The Font Style is something like "Hand Scrawl MS". If you want a laugh, grab some cocktail sauce and dip in. Meanwhile, someone tell Erik to clam up.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: There's a Clam on my coffee table -- and he's angry.
Review: I was curious, so I got the "The Angry Clam". It now sits on my coffee table and every time a visitor comes over to the house they can't help but read about the 'Greatest Story Never Told'. I watch their face as the Clam makes them snicker, grimace and laugh out loud, just as it did for me. The Angry Clam makes a great gift -- or get it for your own coffee table.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The mollusks' answer to The Communist Manifesto!
Review: It has enabled me to give up my resentment of all people who were once under the dark spell of communism. Stalin shouds have read this.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Well worth the 6 minute read!
Review: My roommate left this lying around, and am I glad I picked it up! There's something wonderfully true-to-life about the clam's journey. There's so little there, but so much to unpack.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It is Agony. It is Ecstasy. It is Life.
Review: So the back cover goes. The Angry Clam is destined to be a classic, although may never receive adequate praise as an entertaining work.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Most erudite synopsis of bivalvian ponderings, ever!
Review: Sophisticated and hilarious, tongue in cheek humor. If you are taking yourself too seriously, the internal revelations of this mollusk will make you laugh. You'll never be able to eat clam chowder again!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I found God in the Face of An Angry Clam...
Review: Take all those Zen, Yoga and Feng Shui books out of your shopping card and put this one in! The true answers to life lie in "The Angry Clam"! Erik Quisling's genius and the endearing tale of a small bivalve mollusk's quest for enlightenment is unforgettable and timeless.
