BOB HONEY WHO JUST DO STUFF - SEAN PENN GEBUNDEN

It seems wrong to say that so dystopian a novel is great fun to read  but it's true. I suspect
that Thomas Pynchon and Hunter S. Thompson would love this book. -Salman Rushdie From legendary
actor and activist Sean Penn comes a scorching  darkly funny novel about Bob Honey-a modern
American man  entrepreneur  and part-time assassin. Bob Honey has a hard time connecting with
other people  especially since his divorce. He's tired of being marketed to every moment  sick
of a world where even an orgasm isn't real until it is turned into a tweet. A paragon of
old-fashioned American entrepreneurship  Bob sells septic tanks to Jehovah's Witnesses and
arranges pyrotechnic displays for foreign dictators. He's also a contract killer for an
off-the-books program run by a branch of US intelligence that targets the elderly  the infirm 
and others who drain this consumption-driven society of its resources. When a nosy journalist
starts asking questions  Bob can't decide if it's a chance to form some sort of new friendship
or the beginning of the end for him. With treason on everyone's lips  terrorism in everyone's
sights  and American political life sinking to ever-lower standards  Bob decides it's time to
make a change-if he doesn't get killed by his mysterious controllers or exposed in the
rapacious media first. A thunderbolt of provocative words and startling images  Bob Honey Who
Just Do Stuff marks the fiction debut of one of America's most acclaimed artists.
