I think this is probably Cooney's best farce. It's certainly the closest to black farce I've read so far. Pretty hilarious situation just keeps snowballing to epic proportions with lots of satisfying twists and turns along the way.

[Fshark · Rating 5 out of 5]

Eine herrlich alberne Komödie von einem Meister der Situationskomik.

[Jonathan Farley · Rating 4 out of 5]

A non-stop roller-coaster of situational farce which remains hilarious until the final curtain.
