HOPE FOR CHANGE... But Settle for a Bailout

Are times so hard in America that everyone just wants a bailout? This absurd comedy starts with the lead character, Larry, winning the lottery, posing the question: Does it change you? The novel speaks to the gap between rich and poor, the collapse of the financial system, and is wrapped in a lesbian love story, a tale of the London Olympics, and how one retains honor and dignity in hard times.
