Opis

The Entrepreneur is a zany romp through the imaginative mind of a narrator who sails off into his own realm of ludicrous ambition. He begins a tattoo business with the help of Mink, a mysterious master of the needle, capable of tattooing internal organs so they can be reclaimed by the owner should they ever be snatched. Ever optimistic, the narrator undertakes another misadventure retooling a WWII Japanese submarine for luxury dinner cruises beneath the San Francisco bay. The cruises are a great success until an amorous whale spoils the fun and the Coast Guard must be beckoned to save passengers from angry, half-drunk harbor seals. Undaunted, the narrator continues his quest after falling deeply in love with June Bug, a fellow zither player. Forced to leave California, they flee to New Mexico and open a Pancake House for aliens looking for the best flap jacks in the galaxy. Rick Casteel extends the absurdity of the novella with his short story The Truth about Peking Duck in which the history of Peking Duck is delivered in the monologue of a Peking Duck that's about to be eaten. ..". laugh out loud funny. I can vividly picture in my mind the different scenarios that are taking place and trust me, they are quite out of the ordinary." - Rebecca Reads Book Review
