Twisting the buddy cop story upside down and inside out, Penn
Jillette has created the most distinctive narrator to come along in
fiction in many years: a sock monkey called Dickie. The sock monkey
belongs to a New York City police diver who discovers the body of
an old lover in the murky waters of the Hudson River and sets off
with her best friend to find her killer. The story of their quest
swerves and veers, takes off into philosophical riffs, occasionally
stops to tell a side story, and references a treasure trove of
1970's and 1980's pop culture.
"Sock" is a surprising, intense, fascinating piece of work.
