Book Reviews of The Fool's Progress: An Honest Novel

Book Review: Believe the accolades heaped upon this masterpiece...
Summary: 5 Stars

In my search for another "Confederacy of Dunces" genre I came across this book and was enticed by the accolades heaped upon it by amazon.com reviewers; one who promised me a laugh out funny and cry your eyes out sad reading experience. (What more can one ask of any book?) All of the accolades are spot on - get pass the original impression that the protagonist is an insufferable jerk, he really is not, he is just a man who lived life on his terms and paid whatever price he had to pay for doing so. On his 3500 mile journey home to his roots in the Appalachian foothills he lays bare this life so don't hesitate to go with him because you will have truly a wonderful time; he will take you to the mountain tops and he will show you the valleys and on the home straight feel free to show him your tears. Thanks Edward Abbey and R.I.P.!
