Meet Paul Hoblin: first-time father, second-rate human. Paul has high expectations for his baby daughter and low expectations for himself. He needs her to be a super spy so she can save the world from any number of real-life threats, and so he doesn't have to lift a finger to help. He wouldn't mind getting a full night's sleep every once in a while either.
Meet Agent E. She may be a baby, but she possesses the mental and physical dexterity of James Bond himself. Her mission: whip her lug of a father into shape by whatever means-high tech gizmos or dirty diapers-the situation requires. Did she choose to accept this mission? Negatory. The mission chose her.
Patrick Hueller's Me and Agent E consists entirely of dialogue. But what dialogue--mostly between a father and his new baby, who happens to be a secret agent. The conceit is zany, even goofy, but at the same time, oddly perceptive and provocative. And the laughs keep coming in this innovative, engaging novel. -- Michael Fedo, author of Don't Quit Your Day Job: The Adventures of a Midlist Author Do you have a baby at home? Were you at some point in time a baby yourself? If so, you will want to read Me & Agent E, in which Patrick Hueller asks crucial parenting questions: why do newborns punk their parents? Are babies secretly in the employ of undercover agencies? What does it mean when a toddler's first word is barnacle? Me & Agent E is a laugh-out-loud experience -- and a tender-hearted good time. -- Julie Schumacher, Thurber Award-winning author of Dear Committee Members and The Shakespeare Requirement I really enjoyed reading 'Me and Agent E'. I thought it was very funny, uniquely written, and quite original with the family of characters and their relationships with each other. As a father myself, I know what it's like to have your newborn baby's life all planned out, even before they're born! This story delightfully brought me back to when my (now grown) children were infants, and I was a new father. While reading, I found that I was wishing for an 'Agent E' of my own, then realizing I have an 'Agent O', 'Agent N', and 'Agent A.' Well done, Patrick! -- Rick Logan, winner of Acme Comedy's Funniest Person in the Twin Cities contestAlso from
