The quirky, clever, charming second novel from the writer of Up A Tree in the Park at Night with a Hedgehog. Fielding Montanna might be dead, but doesn't know it. Sunday Daffodil wants to kill herself, but won't die. Louie Louie has the hots for Fielding's once beautiful mother, and the mysterious Moriarty hasn't slept a wink in twenty three years. Manhattan, meanwhile, is slowly sinking in a sea of sludge.Obviously it was always going to have a happy ending.
The literary version of a Coen brothers film crossed with Catcher in the Rye. It's full of dry wit, glaring irony, and exaggerated language, and packed with eclectic characters, emblematic of a world gone to hell * www.bookbag.co.uk *
