Whalewolf
on July 13, 2011
Acadia Einstein is a funny man. He is very dry with his humor. And you can see it tremendously in his short story called Whalewolf. In the story, we are introduced to Detective Fisher. He is one part any character acted by Leslie Nielsen and two parts George Costanza. He is pulled into an absurd investigation dealing with death and rabies. Some of the characters are similar as at least three of them are cheapskates. But there is plenty of social commentary in the mix.
The story was an odd read at 1:30 in the morning, but still quite compelling. It's like watching a great dancing act involving monkeys and puppies: It's so nonsensical that you can't take your eyes off of it.
I'd recommend Whalewolf to anyone who can stomach a great dancing act involving monkeys and puppies ... especially at 1:30 in the morning.
