Today is the Day!

The official release day of Paul J. Barker's 'Timothys Take-Out', that is. What better time to make the acquaintance of this extraordinary novel?

(PRWEB) October 9, 2004 -- Has there ever been a book as appealing across the board as Timothys Take-Out? Whether youve been burned by love, despise your job, or flat-out dont know where youre headed in life, you will find solace within the pages of this cynical masterwork.

Although its only just being formally released, Timothys Take-Out has already captured the publics imagination. Folks seem both drawn to and disturbed by (in a good way?) the books plethora of diverse, ostensibly discordant elements: summer at the beach, satanic cults, young love, misanthropy, and so on.

At the core of this glorious mosaic is Carl Fellows, upon whom the gods have bestowed precisely one gift: intestinal fortitude. His bright spirit sees him through crisis after crisis, failure after failure, but this is before he runs smack into the wall that is Timothys Take-Out. (Talk about an irresistable force meeting an immovable object...)

The shy and somewhat reclusive Mr. Fellows is totally out of his element working at Timothys, which he is quick to dub The Restaurant of the Damned." He loathes his co-workers, loathes those customers he sees as obnoxious, and grabs like a drowning man for anything remotely positive in his life. Although he remains superficially polite and obliging, underneath he is becoming a monster.

Author Paul J. Barker is cautiously optimistic" about his novels chances in the marketplace. He is confident it is the equal of any humorous novel out there, but is only too aware of the obstacles that first time authors from fledgling publishing houses face. His dream? That discriminating readers everywhere will embrace the book, and drive it straight to the top of the bestseller list!

The easiest way to obtain a copy of Timothys Take-Out is to visit Mr. Barkers website (www.dontlikemyjob.com), but it can also be ordered through most online bookstores and, of course, amazon.com
