Amazing!

This book transformed my life. Well, I got a good laugh out of it anyway. It's traveled from place to place with me, and I've shared it with almost any friend I've made. If you can't appreciate The Angry Clam, you have no place in my life!

you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll kiss $ goodbye

This is a brilliant little gem of a book. Sublimely simple, hilariously clever, every one of the sparse words is perfectly placed. The crude drawings are funny & apt. Together, this teeny story of bivalve enlightenment will make you laugh out loud.

A quirky memoir

When I read this book, I laughed; I smirked; and I had to share the experience with others. I shared the book with selected friends, relatives and co-workers who enjoyed this quirky discovery. This delightful book about an angst-ridden clam is not for everyone. The reader must be intelligent and possess a quirky sense of humor. Pseudo-intellectuals will scoff at it. Humor-challenged individuals will find it meaningless. The angry clam is a little book with a big vocabulary that presents a simple story. The book is not about the plotline, however. It simply laughs at pop psychiatry, thumbs its nose at philosophical pretensions, mocks pseudo-intellectual vanity, and generally has fun with the English language.

I found God in the Face of An Angry Clam...

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.

I positively cherish this book.

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.
