Who would've thought that doomsday could be so much fun? Though the characters in Greg Jenkins's new novel A Face in the Sky may not always enjoy what happens, readers certainly will.The publisher, Harvard Square Editions, describes the book as an "apocalyptic tale, but one with some literary flair and a leavening dose of dark, irreverent humor." Among the characters are a befuddled business professor, a retired (and roguish) major league baseball player, an adult film actress, and a playwright who aspires to be a terrorist. In unique ways, each of them must confront what may or may not be the end of the world.Scheduled for publication on date, A Face in the Sky marks the fourth book from Jenkins. His first one, Stanley Kubrick and the Art of Adaptation, is a study of the famed film director. Next came Night Game, a collection of short fiction, which was praised in the New York Times for its "vivid set of major characters (James Joyce and Mickey Mantle among them) and an even more memorable group of antagonists." Then came the rollicking novel Code Green, which deals with the misadventures of a psychiatric nurse.
