You ever have a neighbour whose behaviour is so mind-bogglingly inconsiderate and so suicide-inducingly annoying that you just want to ask him, in a polite Canadian way, to please stop?  TurboJetslams isn't like that. Jass Richards' novel, TurboJetslams: Proof #29 of the Non-Existence of God, tells the tale of one person's pathetic and hilarious attempts to single-handedly stop the destruction of a little piece of beautiful Canadian wilderness by the increasing numbers of idiots who couldn't care less. A perfect cottage-warming gift. Sure to resonate with paddlers everywhere. "Extraordinarily well written with wit, wisdom, and laugh-out-loud ironic recognition, TurboJetslams: Proof #29 of the Non-Existence of God is a highly entertaining and a riveting read that will linger on in the mind and memory long after the little book itself has been finished and set back upon the shelf (or shoved into the hands of friends with an insistence that they drop everything else and read it!). Highly recommended for community library collections [and] personal reading lists."   Midwest Book Review "We all very much enjoyed it--it's funny and angry and heartfelt and told truly..." McSweeney's  "If you're looking for a reading snack that has zero saccharine but is loaded with just the right combination of snark, sarcasm, and humor, you've found it."  Ricki Wilson, Amazon "What Richards has done is brilliant. At first, I began getting irritated as I read about a familiar character, or a familiar scenario from our time living on the lake. Then, as the main character amps up her game, I see the thrill in the planning and the retribution she undertakes for payback." http://mymuskoka.blogspot.ca/2016/07/book-review-turbojetslams.html… (altro)

Questa recensione è stata scritta per gli Omaggi dei Membri di LibraryThing .
The main character, Vic, believed she and her trusty dog had found their forever paradise in a small cottage located out of the way in a well-treed area by a peaceful lake with only a few quiet neighbors. However, over time the neighbors and their choice of activities changed the ambiance – and not to Vic’s liking. The ways Vic went about to correct the assault on her sensory system began with respect, but escalated due to neighbor responses. I found it necessary to read the book in one sitting to see how Vic and her dog survived. ( )

This book is mesmerizing, from the mild beginning, through the spiral down into pollution hell and out to the ending. The excellent writing provided me with entertainment, foreboding and a strange combination of disbelief from ideals and belief from experience.
I received this as a LibraryThing Member GiveAway. Thank you. ( )
