In the spirit of Edward Gorey, Do Geese See God? will appeal to all lovers of wordplay, codes, puzzles, anagrams, crossword puzzles, and linguistic brainteasers.

"Guarnaccia's intelligent, comic drawings alter the reading and savoring of palindromes into an altogether new, visual experience - wise, pointed and funny." —Edward Koren
"Yay!, Wow!, Ah ha! Oh, ho! Hey, yeh!, Yo boy!, Har-har! Rah-rah!, Hoorah! Har! Ooh! Ahem! It's time. Ha!" —Richard Lederer, author, Anguished English
