A wonderful piece of off beat fiction,
By Neuroradiology Bound "beaker" (San Antonio, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Undercover White Trash (Paperback)
BMWs, fine wines and white collars are the lynchpins of Edward Prescott's life until an account with BillyMart forces him to research how the other half lives.
Mr. Kilpatrick's foray into the underbelly of white society is on one level satirical but also an endearing interpretation of life in the trailer community. Characters that at times smell of being caricatures are fleshed out in the novel. I greatly enjoyed each page of this novel, and by the way, it has a great sense of humor as well.

Undercover White [Garbage],
By Dorothy Canedy (Valley Center, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Undercover White Trash (Paperback)
An uproariously funny book. I can picture the actors for each part when it becomes a movie someday. This book reaches the funny bones of both the "snobs" in the world and the "rednecks" too. Well-written, well-researched and thoroughly enjoyable! I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys tongue-in-cheek humor and outright obvious stabs at others' lifestyles.

This review is from: Undercover White Trash (Hardcover)
Though the actual title is much more titillating, this little book would have more precisely been pegged Undercover Redneck. For the only thing truly trashy about it is a few characters who are garbage collectors. How many readers-to-be ordered this pulpy-sounding piece expecting a waller in squalor amidst the great unwashed? Many, most likely--only to find themselves immersed in the delightful tale of a yuppie-type ad exec who embarks on a slumming mission and discovers the down-home world of the everyday working class. From pro wresting programs and martial arts movies to hillbilly bars and mosh pits, this upscale Everyman stares his blue-collar counterpart in the face and, in the way of all novels, emerges forever changed. How and to what degree is the provocative plotline of this 128 page, easy to peruse volume. The punctuation could be more proper, but--hey--we aint talkin' penthouse here!
