Reed Crowe, the eponymous Florida Man, is a middle-aged beach bum, beleaguered and disenfranchised, living on ill-gotten gains deep in the jungly heart of Florida. When sinkholes start opening on Emerald Island, not only are Reed Crowe's seedy businesses--a moribund motel and shabby amusement park--endangered but so are his secrets. Crowe, amateur spelunker, begins uncovering artifacts that change his understanding of the island's history, as well as his understanding of his family's birthright as pioneering homesteaders. As this unfolds, Crowe has to contend with Hector 'Catface' Morales, a Cuban refugee, trained assassin, and crack-addicted Marielito, seeking revenge on Reed for stealing his stash of drugs and leaving him for dead (unbeknownst to Reed) in the wreckage of a plane crash in the Everglades decades ago. Meanwhile, there are other Florida men with whom Crowe must contend ... There are curses. There are sea monsters. There are biblical storms. There's something called the Jupiter Effect. Ultimately, Florida Man is a generation-spanning story about how a man decides to live his life, and how despite staying landlocked and stubbornly in one place, the world nevertheless comes to him"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Middle-aged men $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Islands $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Antiquities $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Assassins $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Revenge $v Fiction. 650 7 $a FICTION / Crime. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a FICTION / Humorous / Black Humor. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a FICTION / Southern. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Revenge. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01096476 650 7 $a Middle-aged men. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01020373 650 7 $a Islands. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00980104 650 7 $a Assassins. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00818974 650 7 $a Antiquities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00810745 651 0 $a Florida $v Fiction. 651 7 $a Florida. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205150 655 0 $a Suspense fiction. 655 0 $a Magic realist fiction. 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726755 655 7 $a Magic realist fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01922459 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Suspense fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Magic realist fiction. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Cooper, Tom, $t Florida man $d New York : Random House, 2020. $z 9780593133323 $w (DLC) 2019038127 941 $a 10 952 $l GMPD771 $d 20230210023214.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909061742.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722063307.0 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20210406012413.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210202014652.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20201010010302.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20201002011833.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20200929010545.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20200904010053.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20200805014638.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C3DE4208D6E611EAA1A8133A97128E48 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
