Produktinformationen zu „Foozlers (ePub)“
Longlisted for the ReLit Award (2005)Foozlers is a 24-hour "e;Odyssey"e; that runs a juggernaut through the high- and lowlands of Vancouver. Jerry Lowe is the reluctant driver of a getaway car for two sketchy junkies on the make. A pair of cops spend a shift wobbling on the cusp of total breakdown. The groom-to-be in an Indian arranged marriage seeks an escape of the carnal variety. Soon, they will all intersect paths with a gas station attendant and a very "e;special"e; car wash operator. And somebody's got to do something about that noisy, bad-tempered cockatoo.Foozlers chronicles that thin line between sane and insane behaviour, and the mayhem and unpredictability fuelled by the "e;Butterfly Effect"e;-strangers' paths crossing for only an instant but having explosive effects. By story's end, lives, or at least attitudes, will change. Sort of.Praise for Foozlers:"e;Like Blaise Cendrars' To the End of the World, John Kennedy Toole's A Confederacy of Dunces and the whacked-out works of J.P. Donleavy, Terry Southern and William Burroughs, Foozlers is a madcap tour de force."e; (The Vancouver Sun)"e;irreverent, break-neck pace, and rollercoaster prose that's a lot of fun to ride"e; (Quill & Quire)"e;It's a caper story with every element slightly off-kilter. And that's the charm of [Foozlers] . . . . Read it and laugh."e; (RainReview.com)
