But amateur detective (and bookworm barmaid extraordinaire) Marie-Pomme knows there's more to this case than just too much pi a colada... and she intends to prove it, even if it means risking her own life at the bowling alley The Pineapples of Wrath is a quirky detective story as well as a loving tribute to tiki kitsch and old school exotica. Cathon's exuberant art has both the vibrant tone of a steel guitar solo and the refreshing feel of a tropical drink topped with a toothpick umbrella. So sit back, relax and enjoy this insanely funny story set in the imaginary Hawaiian neighborhood of sunny Trois-Rivi res, Qu bec. |
