Daniel Pinkwater
The Snarkout Boys & The Baconburg Horror
eBook
( April 13, 2014)
Great questions have always been raised by literature. MOBY DICK asks, "Doesn't anyone ever get seasick?" THE ODYSSEY asks, "Doesn't anyone ever get seasick?" THE SNARKOUT BOYS AND THE BACONBURG HORROR asks: "Why doesn't everyone get food poisoning? How do they survive so many greasy snacks? Why are werewolves like that? Doesn't a great detective have anything better to do?"
Here you will not find the answers to these questions and many, many others. Provocative to some, stimulating to others, boring to jaded sophisticates, this is a book that must be read--although it can also be thrown with great effect.
Apparently a mystery about lycanthropy, a master criminal, a great detective, and various other creatures of the night, THE SNARKOUT BOYS AND THE BACONBURG HORROR can be read on at least fourteen other levels. This is a rare achievement. ALICE IN WONDERLAND itself can only be read on nine different levels. Only the genius of someone like Pinkwater, or of Pinkwater, could create such a masterpiece of virtually undetectable complexity.
