SOMETHING TO LAUGH ABOUT!
FORT LAUDERDALE, APRIL 2005:
L.C. Evans’ new novel, Jobless Recovery,
like all good satire, strips the newsworthy butt-naked, allowing us to see
beyond the cellulite and into the guts of the matter.
Exposing the consequences of the trend to eliminate American jobs, Evans
shines a humorous spotlight on some very ugly wrinkles of corporate America.
A morbidly ugly clown, grotesque to look at, but funny as hell.
