Vernon God Little

Named as one of the 100 Best Things in the World by GQ
magazine in 2003 the riotous adventures of Vernon Gregory
Little in small town Texas and beachfront Mexico mark one
of the most spectacular irreverent and bizarre debuts of
the twenty-first century so far. Its depiction of
innocence and simple humanity (all seasoned with a dash of
dysfunctional profanity) in an evil world is never less
than astonishing. The only novel to be set in the barbecue
sauce capital of Central Texas Vernon God Little suggests
that desperate times throw up the most unlikely of heroes.
