Fool: A Novel by Christopher Moore
Christopher Moore has previously written books starring Death, vampires, and Jesus’ best friend, Lamb. In Fool, he tackles King Lear, respinning the tale as told by – you guessed it – the Fool. ““It’s hard to resist so gleeful a tale of murder, witchcraft, treason, maiming, and spanking…Fool is a wickedly good time,” writes the Christian Science Monitor.
