"Hilarious, always inventive, this is a book for all, especially uptight
English teachers, bardolaters, and ministerial students."
--Dallas Morning News
Fool--the bawdy and outrageous New York Times bestseller from the
unstoppable Christopher Moore--is a hilarious new take on William
Shakespeare's King Lear...as seen through the eyes of the foolish
liege's clownish jester, Pocket. A rousing tale of "gratuitous shagging,
murder, spanking, maiming, treason, and heretofore unexplored heights of
vulgarity and profanity," Fool joins Moore's own Lamb, Fluke, The
Stupidest Angel, and You Suck! as modern masterworks of satiric wit
and sublimely twisted genius, prompting Carl Hiassen to declare
Christopher Moore "a very sick man, in the very best sense of the
word."
