by Trevor Cole (Author)

Jean wouldn't be able stand it if something unfortunate were to befall her friends--that's why decides to kill them herself, before anything else can harm them. Bad Marie meets Arsenic and Old Lace in this darkly humorous story of a woman whose overpowering love for her friends moves her to murder each and every one of them. Practical Jean, the U.S. debut of acclaimed Canadian author Trevor Cole, is a "biting and black comedy of middle-class mores gone murderously wrong" that "combines diamond-cut social satire with thoughtful contemplations of friendship" (Globe and Mail). A deliciously dark satire with roots that spread from Jonathan Swift's A Modest Proposal to Tim Burton's Edward Scissorhands, Cole's Practical Jean is a razor's edge dissection of relationships, faithfulness, and homicide. After all, what are friends for?
