About This Item
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1991. First Edition, First Printing. Fine Hardcover in a Fine Dust Jacket. New/New.
No Flaws or Blemishes; Gift Quality.. Hiaasen reminds one of Harry Crews in his depiction of a South full of eccentric people involved in crazy schemes. It is a measure of the writer's talent that no matter how bizarre the situation, it is believable.
Late in the book a character laments his predicament as "an irresistible convergence of violence, mayhem and mortality!" If he had added nonstop hilarity, he would have had a perfect description of this book. Highly recommended. [Library Journal]
