Title: Hysterical bit of absurdity
Review: I mean, absurd the way Three Men In a Boat is absurd. Both are outright parodies, just of a different time and place, and I don't think I've ever read a book quite like the two of them.Ignatius is hysterical and eerily like some of my old high school classmates. Jones is one cool cat, and the only character with any inkling of how freakin' weird their world is. Mrs. Reilly is a riot, and ends up very nearly a figure of female empowerment. Best of all is Mancuso, the pathetic undercover cop whose various costumes are the delight of the French Quarter.Read this book. It's certainly fun, and you probably won't ever forget it.
