Beschreibung:
Andrew Fox is the author of the critically acclaimed novel Fat White Vampire Blues, described as "Ann Rice meets A Confederacy of Dunces." Fox has been employed as a mime, public-safety advocate, playwright, and, after Hurricane Katrina, a part of FEMA's Gulf Coast Recovery Office. His influences include Marvel Comics, Planet of the Apes movies, and Ray Bradbury novels.
Offering a tribute to Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451, this title explores the topical relationships between obesity, government health care, pop culture, and body image. It incorporates such characters as: a civil servant with questionable motives, a power-mad preacher evangelising anorexia, and a beautiful young woman addicted to liposuction.
