A very strange book. It's not the plot that's strange, although it is somewhat surreal at times, not the characters, or the setting. It's the narrator, who is crude and scatologically obsessed. It's like watching an episode of South Park or Family Guy, but without a lot of the humor. Although there is some wry, satirical humor.
Vernon Little is the narrator, a teenager from Texas caught in the tragedy of a school shooting. He is blamed for it, or at least targeted as the scapegoat, and then all manner of unlikely events occur.
So if you can get past the constant images of shit and crap and the aroma of poontang, you might actually enjoy this book.
