Résumé
"Witty, irreverent, and ingeniously plotted, Matthew Fries' laugh-out-loud-funny debut novel is a must-read for anyone who loves a black comedy along the lines of Good Omens. Even when everything in the novel is up in the air, one thing's for certain: you're sure as Hell itself to get a rollicking ride out of it." - Voted #8 on Reedsy's best indie books of ALL time. Life sucks and then you die! You die and go to hell, which sucks way worse! But, what if you were offered a chance to do it all over again? What lengths would you go to for a new start? The clickety-clack of Hell's keyboards sounds like a plague of locusts, and the mind-crushing boredom of futile office work is enough to drive a person insane, but Karen Floyd persists.
Every day, she shows up for her job at the Nakara Corporation (Hell's largest provider of cell phone service, Internet, and Cable television), hoping to catch a break. Then, one fateful day, a call comes in. Satan has plans to make Hell great again! Satan wants Karen to lead the team on a new communications project. She has until Monday to possess the body of a five-year-old girl, avoid an exorcism, and finish a rather unruly spreadsheet -- that may, or may not, be the key to unlocking an ancient and evil prophecy. Now this dark horse, the unholy underdog, has a chance to live life again, in a new body, a fresh start, and come Hell, high water, exorcism, or cat-worshipping death cult, Karen Floyd will get what she deserves! Wait .
what? You may have read wacky, you may have read kooky, you may have even read laugh-out-loud hilarious books before, but you have never read The Sick Box, a novel. More Reviews: "A darkly comic, compelling, and critical tale about family and the never-ending grind." Kirkus "The Sick Box is a laugh-out-loud hysterical farce that pokes fun at everything from The Exorcist to fake self-help advice columnists to Reiki practitioners.
Fries expertly skewers contemporary capitalist culture and society, calling attention to the zaniness of the world he's created with effortless confidence. Overall, The Sick Box is a pitch perfect black comedy." - Michele Hogmire Reviewer "Absurd, cynical, and a little disgusting." - Alison Manley the Miramichi Reader
