Sacre Bleu: A Comedy d'Art
Christopher Moore—Carl Hiassen
“[Moore’s novels] deftly blend surreal, occult, & even science-fiction doings with laugh-out-loud satire of contemporary culture.”
—Washington Post
“If there’s a funnier writer out there, step forward.”
—Playboy
Absolutely nothing is sacred to Christopher Moore. The phenomenally popular, New York Times bestselling satirist whom the Atlanta Journal-Constitution calls, “Stephen King with a whoopee cushion & a double-espresso imagination” has already lampooned Shakespeare, San Francisco vampires, marine biologists, Death…even Jesus Christ & Santa Claus!
Now, in his latest masterpiece, Sacré Bleu, the immortal Moore takes on the Great French Masters. A magnificent “Comedy d’Art” from the author of Lamb, Fool, & Bite Me, Moore’s Sacré Bleu is part mystery, part history (sort of), part love story, & wholly hilarious as it follows a young baker-painter as he joins the dapper Henri Toulouse-Lautrec on a quest to unravel the mystery behind the supposed “suicide” of Vincent van Gogh.
CHRISTOPHER MOORE is the author of many novels, including this one. He began writing at age six & became the oldest known child prodigy when, in his early thirties, he published his first novel. His turn-ons are the ocean, playing the toad lotto, & talking animals on TV. His turn-offs are salmonella, traffic, & rude people. Chris enjoys cheese crackers, acid jazz, & otter scrubbing. He lives in an inaccessible island fortress in the Pacific. You can e-mail him at BSFiends@aol.com. Visit the official Christopher Moore website at www.chrismoore.com.
