It's a damn funny book and it paints a vivid picture of life in NOLA. It
would be interesting to know what folks from the area think of it. They
might hate that book. The intro to the book could be another book in
itself and is a testament to a mother's perseverance, which resulted in
John Kennedy Toole winning the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction a decade after
he was dead.

I only read the first part because it's on my iPad which has been
missing for nearly a year. Hopefully, I'll find it and finish it off.
