The language is what's sensuous here, and Handler often dips his toe into Joyce--never a full descent into the Irishman's decadence, but the two are kinsmen in how fast their prose moves, at the speed of rushing blood.
A fascinating, profane book . . . 'All the Dirty Parts' is a shockingly original novel--readers might be reminded of Philip Roth's famously raunchy 'Portnoy's Complaint' . . . It deserves to be read widely, and not just by adults--it's one of the most realistic depictions of the sex lives of young people to come around in a long time.
An irreverent, intimate glimpse inside adolescent desire, sexual identity, and emotional discovery.
This interesting experiment by Handler may be the most clear-eyed and honest portrayal of the sexuality of adolescent boys in recent memory--it's raw, authentic, fitfully funny, and tragic all at the same time . . . A disarming cautionary tale.
Handler continues his recent endeavor to boldly straddle the divide between teen and adult books . . . Cole sounds like Holden Caulfield writing a sex blog. Amusing yet genuine, lustful yet sensitive, [All the Dirty Parts] approaches teenage horniness seriously and, in the process, touches on important subjects such as sexism, consent, and sexual identity.
[A] millennialPortnoy's Complaint. . . [Handler] wisely holds nothing back . . . Its unabashedly graphic language will keep this novel off of the young adult shelves, but it is exactly that readership who might benefit most from its surprisingly subtle exploration of sexual ethics.
All the Dirty Partsis a novel with surprising depth and thoughtfulness . . . Unapologetically raunchy, blunt and often very funny.
Written in short, tight, and effective bursts, [All the Dirty Parts]is a commentary on today's youth. Cole is a rich character because we see that he has been more or less bred by society to be the sex machine that he is . . . [R]eminiscent of Bret Eston Ellis'Less Than Zero.
Daniel Handler's raunchy, sex-drenched, stream-of-consciousness novelAll the Dirty Partsreads likePortnoy's Complaintset in high school . . . Handler's portrait of adolescent sexuality--with its raging urges, fumbling exploration, euphoric discoveries and sudden emotional pitfalls--is brash, messy, endearing, sexually explicit and haunting . . . a gutsy, raw and funny slice of teenage life that few will ever forget.
The author of Lemony Snicket'sA Series of Unfortunate Eventsditches the pen name for a coming-of-age tale about a teenage boy discovering his sexuality. Handler delivers on the title with a blunt, honest--and very explicit--take on a topic that's somehow fallen out of modern storytelling.
[Handler] has created characters that he and his readers can respect, struggling between pursuit of pleasure and the other parts of their lives . . . Handler has smuggled questions of identity, duty and faithfulness into this novel, amid all the heavy breathing and awkward tangling of limbs.
An unapologetically raunchy novel with lashings of graphic content. Handler writes in taut paragraphs that feel true to the way teenagers think, and the tale of Cole's irrepressible horniness zips along gratifyingly fast . . .All the Dirty Partsis a profane and lewd novel, but it is also a witty one that confronts subjects such as consent and sexual orientation . . . Cole is good company, and when his sexual experimentation takes him into surprising territory the novel rises to the challenge, turning gracefully into a bildungsroman.
[Handler's] latest endeavor truly leaves in all the dirty parts and the result is an engrossing, thought-provoking novel.
A slim, satisfying novel.
An all-around startling work. The depth of emotion we experience through Cole's eyes is matched perfectly by the sparseness of language . . . The intense reality ofAll the Dirty Partscomes from its curious ability to draw out the memory of our teen selves--the awkwardness and the ecstasy alike.
A coming-of-age story with generous dollops of humor and even tenderness.
Frank, fearless, and often very funny
'All The Dirty Parts' reads fast and unflinching . . . The book paints an honest portrait of a teenage boy trying to find himself and gain perspective. This slice of Cole's teenage love story isn't all frills and lingering glances. This story is skin and tears and a lost boy trying his best to understand himself.
Take one sex-crazed teenage boy and take him seriously. Don't make him the butt of an easy joke. Don't make him the star of a humiliation comedy. Let him be an idiot, a jerk, a cad, a hero. Make his desire into a rocket shooting him out of this too small life. Show his loneliness crash-landing him into pieces. It's almost impossible to write tenderly and truthfully about such things. Somehow Handler has done it.
Sex, desire, love, consent, coercion, sexual identity, porn--Daniel Handler takes it all on in ALL THE DIRTY PARTS. Teenage Cole is simultaneously lovable and troubling, but mostly he is real, and his story not only compelling but a fantastic jumping off point for discussing ethical sexual behavior.
A spectacular portrait of teenage male desire. This beautifully concise novel, literally composed ofonlythe dirty parts, had me blushing and laughing and squirming, sometimes all at once.ALL THE DIRTY PARTSis so honest and eloquent about youthful yearning--the pent-up aggression, the confusion, the pure wonder--that it will surely be passed quietly around middle school locker rooms and back-alley libraries everywhere. A joyously lewd yet tender masterpiece.
Cole is a horny teenage boy who spends his time seducing girls and watching porn. Handler, who is perhaps better known as Lemony Snicket, gives hero more depth when Cole meets his match in the exotic, experienced Grisaille, and starts to experience feelings other than lust.
It's been a while since I read something that left me muttering 'Oh my God' every few pages. I finished this slight book in one sitting, and couldn't stop thinking about it afterwards. Yes, there are familiar tropes readily employed and certain passages that made me uneasy, but there is also much to savour, not least Handler's clear-sighted exploration of gender politics and the fluidity of sexual identity. Tender and troubling, authentic and intimate,Allthe Dirty Partsis a thought-provoking read.
