The Gimmicks / Chris McCormick, 354 pgs. read by Will M. Watt, Mike Ortego & Mary Jane Wells
Armenian genocide, families, wrestling, betrayals...all of these elements have a place in this rambling book that is told from the different perspectives of the main characters. Avo is a gentle giant, Ruben his diminutive second cousin who becomes his brother, Mina, Avo's love and Ruben's frenemy, and Terry, the wrestling manager who makes Avo into the Brow Beater. The story skips around among the characters and the time. The audio was confusing so I switched to the print. Still kind of confusing but the story and the characters are memorable and interesting. It all came together in the end, at least I think it did.
