Satirical New Novel Offers up a Provocative Fairytale for Adults

Savannah, Ga. (PRWEB) November 29, 2007

Glamour Job: A Fairy-Tale for Grown-ups by Doug Farrell is the story of a beautiful American model who finds her life upturned when she's abducted by goblins and taken to their submerged city hidden in Lake Michigan.


In the book, model Laurie Morgan discovers that being chosen as the face of Glamourine Cosmetics is more of a nightmare than a reward. When she uncovers a whole underbelly of society filled with strip clubs, drag queens and even a half-sized twin of herself, her entire world begins to come apart. Suddenly condemned as a killer and terrorist, she's put in jail, and her only chance at survival is to get her true identity back. But what's real and what isn't--and can anyone tell the difference anymore?


Both a scathing satire on the cosmetic industry and an entertaining look at the magical creatures that might really live among us, Glamour Job: A Fairy-Tale for Grown-ups is a heady blend of social commentary and fantasy. Written with lively wit and passion by a writer who is no stranger to paranormal experiences himself, Glamour Job is destined to be a classic.
