Dalt Frisbie's plans to build an amusement park are met with wondrous enthusiasm by the natives. But when Richie Rat starts marking his territory on his first visit to town, and Mr. $-ner arrives with all sorts of riff-raff, their simple lives are changed forever.
Populated with cartoon vermin, real vermin, people dressed as cartoon vermin, former Ratkateers, a momilogist, and a bevy of bikini-clad beauties (one very well-read), Pollenesia is a charmingly vitriolic satire of Florida, the tourist industry, and society in general. Told from the point of view of a native fortuitous enough to have landed a janitorial job at the park, this book is a lark for Florida-lovers and Florida-haters alike.
(Not to mention one of the most outrageous and disgusting climaxes in literary history!)
