Description
America has become a country in search of a dictator. Billy’s love of celebrity and aversion to hard work leaves a growing trail of wronged members of the public – a trail that he just can’t seem to shake. Although he can’t understand why, the townsfolk begin increasingly to mistake him for the devil. THE JOLLY CORONER is a humorous, modern day satire about the American South. The novel raises questions about moral decay, proving that a casual string of circumstances, in the right conditions, can lead to the rise of a dangerous man… only it’s so accidental no one seems to notice.
Advance Praise
“The story is part David Lynch, part comedy of errors, and readers will never quite know what will happen next. The scenes are loaded with surprises... A highly creative, if meandering, adventure.” —Kirkus
