Industry reviews
"The characters wear their flaws like brand logos, identifying them as the rotters they are and will continue to be. Barry isn't so much a satirist as a savvy shopper, picking brands from a set stock. This shorthand serves him well in his columns, which tame the chaos of an unruly world by reducing it to a familiar comedy of manners....But the same device flattens his fiction, which has to invent characters from the mess. Once he defines his characters by their tics, they can only repeat themselves."
New York Times Book Review - John Leland (10/06/2002)

TRICKY BUSINESS by Dave Barry Humor NEW Book On Tape



Tricky Business
by Dave Barry
3 Cassettes ~ 4 Hours ~ Abridged
Read by Dick Hill
NEW - Mark Through UPC

A Ferociously Comic Helping of South Florida Mayhem.

The Extravaganza of the Seas is a five-thousand-ton *cash* cow, a top-heavy tub whose sole function is to carry gamblers three miles from the Florida coast, take their money, then bring them back so they can find more money. In the middle of a tropical storm one night, these characters are among the passengers it carries: Fay Benton, a single mom and cocktail waitress desperate for something to go right for once; Johnny and the Contusions, a ship's band with so little talent they are ... well, the ship's band; Arnold and Phil, two refugees from the Beaux Arts Senior Center; Lou Tarant, a wide, bald man who has killed nine people, though none recently; and an assortment of uglies whose job it is to facilitate the ship's true business, which is money laundering or drug-smuggling or...something.

What happens to them all in the midst of the fiercest storm in years, the unpredictable ways in which this trip will change their lives and send them ricocheting off each other like a giant game of pinball, is the story of this astonishing, wickedly satisfying, all-too-human novel by "one of the funniest writers alive" - Carl Hiaasen.

Dave Barry has been awarded the Pulitzer Prize for commentary. His columns for the Miami Herald were syndicated worldwide, and he is the author of a number of bestselling books, including the recently published Peter and the Starcatchers with Ridley Pearson. He lives in Miami, where he drives very nervously.
