Fool: A Novel

Hilarious, always inventive, this is a book for all, especially uptight English teachers, bardolaters, and ministerial students.

Fool the bawdy and outrageous New York Times bestseller from the unstoppable Christopher Moore is a hilarious new take on William Shakespeare s King Lear as seen through the eyes of the foolish liege s clownish jester, Pocket. A rousing tale of gratuitous shagging, murder, spanking, maiming, treason, and heretofore unexplored heights of vulgarity and profanity, Fool joins Moore s own Lamb, Fluke, The Stupidest Angel, and You Suck! as modern masterworks of satiric wit and sublimely twisted genius, prompting Carl Hiassen to declare Christopher Moore a very sick man, in the very best sense of the word.
