The Crickholme siblings youthful exploits take them on myriad paths: a hermeticpsychic, a dog trainer, an ice cream purveyoress, a missing person. Between memories,factoids, letters, and old photographs, Matty investigates how their offbeat rearing made themthe adults they became, and how fantasy and convention collide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlex Kovacs's writings have received acclaim for their invention, wit, and astute observations ofour absurd world. \u003ci\u003eSexology\u003c\/i\u003e brings this intellectual playfulness to the story of the Crickholmeswith a unique prose that evokes the complex emotional landscapes of W.G.
