CRITICS RAVE about Praying for Mrs. Mombasa:
“A Monty Python-worthy assault on racism, sexism, prejudice of all kinds, and pigs.” —Undermining Husbandry
“A strange and wonderful new look at the power of hope, with the emphasis on strange.” —Crooked Horizons journal
“Deliciously iconoclastic, laugh-out-loud funny, and largely inscrutable.” —ScrutabilityCheck.com
“Hilarious, irreverent, and fortunately not too long.” —Contemporary Literature Monitor
“Shocking, thought-provoking, and fortunately not too long.” —MonitoringLiterature.com
“I was thinking, ‘This book is slapstick’ — until the book itself told me it was slapstick, at which point I knew I would have to come up with a different description; which is how I settled on ‘rollicking religion comedy.’” —Arthur Trimpker
“No one seems to have told this writer that sex and Scandinavia do not mix.” —Norway Norms

“Praying for Mrs. Mombasa may set back the very idea of the novel by a century or more. But it’s so fun!” —Perish the Thought magazine
