Journal Entry 1 by greenbadger from St Albans, Hertfordshire United Kingdom on Wednesday, November 26, 2014
Winner of the Man Booker Prize 2003.
From the back:
"A twenty-first century comedy in the presence of death. Winner of the Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Award for Comic Writing 2003, and named one of the 100 Best Things in the World by GQ Magazine, the riotous adventures of Vernon Gregory Little in small-town Texas and beachfront Mexico mark one of the most spectacular, irreverent and bizarre debuts of the 21st century so far. The only novel to be set in the barbecue sauce capital of Central Texas, Vernon God Little suggests that desperate times throw up the most unlikely of heroes."
I read this some years ago and all I remember about it is that it didn't really engage me and was a bit disappointing. I hope the next reader enjoys it more.
