Jackrabbit Smile: Hap and Leonard
Autor Joe R. Lansdaleen Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 mar 2019
Hap and Leonard are an unlikely pair-Hap, a self-proclaimed white trash rebel, and Leonard, a tough-as-nails black gay Vietnam vet and Republican-but they're the closest friend either of them has in the world. Hap is celebrating his wedding to his longtime girlfriend, Brett (who is also Hap and Leonard's boss), when their backyard barbecue is interrupted by a couple of Pentecostal white supremacists. They're not too happy to see Leonard, and no one is happy to see them, but they have a problem and only Hap and Leonard will take the case.
Judith
Mulhaney's
daughter,
Jackrabbit,
has
been
missing
for
five
years.
Well,
she's
been
missing
from
them
for
five
years,
but
she's
been
missing
from
everybody,
including
the
local
no-goods
who
ran
with
her,
for
a
few
months.
Despite
their
misgivings
about
Judith
and
her
son,
Hap
and
Leonard
take
the
case.
It
isn't
long
until
they
find
themselves
mixed
up
in
a
revivalist
cult
that
believes
Jesus
will
return
flanked
by
an
army
of
lizard-men--
solving
a
murder
to
boot.
With
Lansdale's
trademark
humor,
whip-smart
dialogue,
and
plenty
of
ass-kicking
adventures
to
be
had,
you
won't
want
to
miss
Hap
and
Leonard's
latest.

"Talking

great
fun,

when
the
trash
talkers

Hap
Collins

Leonard
Pine,
the
cutup
private

Review
"Part of what makes this book exceptional is the way Lansdale portrays the long legacy of race and class discrimination as the characters' lived experience. . . . Lansdale is one of a kind, with a deceptively folksy and funny voice that hides real darkness; fans of the eponymous SundanceTV series will be delighted to find the books are even better."—Booklist (starred review)
"Raucous . . . As always, Lansdale provides a wild, fun ride with an astute eye on social issues."—Publishers Weekly
"Fans of the books and Sundance TV series will eagerly follow the men through their latest, politically timely hullabaloo."—Library Journal
"A companionable, enjoyable, and profane series . . . Its pleasures are still welcome."—Kirkus Reviews
