From the supplier: John Kennedy Toole's first novel, 'The Neon Bible,' shares many themes with his classic 'A Confederacy of Dunces,' but portrays these themes in different ways. 'The Neon Bible,' is tragic and tells the story a boy's growth and maturation while 'A Confederacy of Dunces' is satiric and tells of a grown man's desire to regain his childhood. Both works address the putrefaction of formally unspoiled values and people.
