Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

From the acclaimed author of the underground cult classic Youth in Revolt: The Journals of Nick Twisp comes this hilarious new "musical" novel of teenage sisters who "light a small cherry bomb" under their minister father's campaign for the Vice Presidency of the United States. While one lovely sister dallies with a picketing environmentalist, her identical twin conspires to "blow the elections sky high." The pace is hectic and the laughs non-stop as one surprising character after another suddenly breaks into "song." Cast your vote now for the wittiest, most inventive novel of the year!
