Publisher's Note Crews brings to life a world of has-beens, ruined men, forgotten wives--and the ebullient woman who is out to save them all--in this darkly hilarious novel centered in a gruesome Florida retirement community with peculiar residents.
Industry Reviews "It's all rather ludicrous, and never particularly believable....But there are shards of brilliance and of the gonzo wit that has made Crews's reputation as a dead-on satirist." New York Times Book Review - Karen Karbo (01/25/1998)
"The once reigning champion of redneck fiction continues his decline with yet another one-joke novel....Lowbrow comedy, not literary wit." Garner
