Publisher's Synopsis
Part comedy and part thriller, Bob Honey Sings Jimmy Crack Corn establishes Sean Penn as a fixture of the literary landscape for years to come.
Bob Honey Sings Jimmy Crack Corn-the madcap follow-up to Sean Penn's debut novel, which was hailed by authors as diverse as Salman Rushdie, Jane Smiley, and Paul Theroux -explores the deepest recesses of American politics and culture. Bob Honey, the disillusioned divorcee with a penchant for murder by mallet, weaves his way toward Washington DC for the ultimate showdown with a certain nefarious "landlord," but nothing is as it seems, and Bob will have more than just the government working against him.
