Big Trouble by Dave Barry
“Big Trouble” is a humorous crime novel written by Pulitzer Prize-winning humorist Dave Barry. The novel was published in 1999 and was Barry’s first foray into fiction writing. It was later adapted into a film of the same name in 2002.
The story is set in Miami and revolves around a motley crew of characters whose lives intersect in a series of bizarre and comical events. The plot is driven by a mysterious suitcase filled with stolen nuclear weapons, which inadvertently falls into the hands of Eliot Arnold, a downtrodden, divorced ad executive. As Arnold becomes entangled in the mess, he is joined by a cast of eccentric characters, including a homeless man named Puggy, two dim-witted hitmen, a pair of middle school students, and a disgruntled former employee.
“Big Trouble” is a fast-paced and irreverent novel filled with absurd situations, witty humor, and satirical commentary on various aspects of American society. Dave Barry’s background as a humorist shines through in the book, and his trademark comedic style is evident in the storytelling.
The novel was well-received for its comedic elements and sharp satire, and it offers a lighthearted take on crime and chaos in a sun-soaked, quirky Miami setting. While not a traditional crime novel, it provides a unique and entertaining perspective on the genre, making it a fun read for fans of Dave Barry’s humor and anyone looking for a humorous take on crime fiction.
