Blast from the Past

Kinky Friedman: Blast from the Past (USA 1999)

From the Publisher:
Return with us now to those carefree days of yesteryear known as the 1970s -- when the Bee Gees were bigshots, all sex was safe, and smoking in public wasn't a hanging offense. In the heart of New York's Greenwich Village, Jewish cowboy Kinky Friedman is trying to survive as a country crooner at the Lone Star Cafe. And -- thanks to a trigger-happy stalker -- he's also just plain trying to survive. But who would want to blow away a lovable guy like the Kinkster? Are they really gunning for Kinky's houseguest, Barry Freed, a.k.a. Sixties radical Abbie Hoffman? Could there be a connection to Kinky's current girlfriend, Judy, who swears she's being followed by her old paramour, who perished in Vietnam? It's enough to drive a mild-mannered musician into the dirty business of detective work. But then, being shot at, almost blown up, and threatened with violent death will do that to a person.

Kinky Friedman: Blast from the Past. Ballantine Books, ISBN: 0345416309 (October, 1999), 256 p., $15.00.

Blast from the Past

Kinky Friedman: Blast from the Past (UK 1998)

From the Publisher:
The author has come up with a yarn about his early days in New York - how Kinky Friedman, the down-and-out, sleazeball country-music performer, became Kinky Friedman, the down-and-out, sleazeball ace detective. It explains where those Village Irregulars - Ratso, Rambam and McGovern - came from, and why. And it asks the question, was Stephanie Dupont ever really a little girl, a five-year-old nymphet in patent leather spikes? The answers to this and myriad other questions are to be found in 'Blast from the Past', a tale of murder, mayhem, madness, lust, considerable navel-gazing, and exceptional fun.

Kinky Friedman: Blast from the Past. Faber & Faber, ISBN: 0571197493 (November, 1998), 244 p., £5.99.

Blast from the Past

Kinky Friedman: Blast from the Past (USA 1998)

From the Publisher:
Kinky Friedman has searched his failing memory and has come up with a novel about his early days in New York City and how Kinky Friedman, the down-and-out star-crossed country music performer, became Kinky Friedman, the down-and-out star-crossed ace detective. In this prequel to his earlier novels, one which gives new meaning to the term "retro," Kinkster fans are given the definitive answer to two of literature's great burning questions: Where the hell did those weird characters come from anyway? And what about that puppet head? But lest you think that Blast from the Past is all nostalgia, be assured that Kinky has supplied a bang-up plot as well, much of which revolves around the mystery of who this guy Tim is who Judy exclaims about while being hosed by Kinky, and the question of whether or not the Feds have found Abbie Hoffman, who has been playing hide-and-seek in Ratso's apartment. Or something like that.

Kinky Friedman: Blast from the Past. A Novel. Simon & Schuster, ISBN: 0684803798 (September, 1998), 254 p., $23.00.
