This book had more of Moore's irreverent and satirical humor, something I had grown accustomed to in the other few of his books that I've read. Even though I found it entertaining. this book didn't measure up to "Lamb". "A Dirty Job" started off strong but around the mid-point of the book it lost a little of its luster.

Full of toxic masculinity and misogyny. Not even remotely funny.

After finishing the trilogy of Pocket's explorations, and enjoying Lamb, I decided to dive into this piece. Absolutely hilarious, the nervousness of the main character in his new found role in life, and the comedy from his daughter. The voices are read wonderfully by Fisher Stevens. Would like to thank my local public library for bringing the works of Mr. Moore to my attention. Highly Recommend!

Had to read it for book club. Thought I would still finish, but after discussion, decided it wasn't worth it when I had books I was looking forward to
