"In a small Texas town, fifteen-year-old Vernon finds himself in trouble after his best friend Jesus kills sixteen of his classmates before committing suicide, as he becomes the target of vengeful townspeople and the media."
"Vernon Gregory Little a 15 ans. Quand seize adolescents de son lycée sont abattus, il devient la proie idéale d'une horde de pseudo-journalistes de CNN menée par Eulalio Ledesma. Vernon s'enfuit au Mexique, en espérant un improbable rendez-vous avec la divine Taylor Figueroa. Dans ce premier roman, Pierre DBC trace un portrait au vitriol de l'Amérique d'aujourd'hui."
"When sixteen kids are shot on high school grounds, everyone looks for someone to blame. Meet Vernon Little, under arrest at the sheriff's office, a teenager wearing nothing but yesterday's underwear and his prized logo sneakers. Moments after the shooter, his best buddy, turns the gun on himself, Vernon is pinned as an accomplice. Out for revenge are the townspeople, the cable news networks, and Deputy Vaine Gurie, a woman whose zeal for the Pritikin diet is eclipsed only by her appetite for barbecued ribs from the Bar-B-Chew Barn. So Vernon does what any red-blooded American teenager would do; he takes off for Mexico. Vernon God Little is a provocatively satirical, riotously funny look at violence, materialism, and the American media."
