About this title
Synopsis:
Fresh from prison, Tomato "Mad Dog" Rodriguez returns to find her once-bohemian Mission neighborhood overrun by Latte People trading stocks on cell phones while careening down sidewalks in their Ford Explorers. Rents have multiplied to the square root of horror, forcing the families, elderly artists, and hippies - those who didn't already get run over on the sidewalks - to flee in droves, leaving behind only those willing to serve noisy coffees and change the deadly Firestone tires.
About the Author:
When Mrs. Lopez is not too busy using scissors to cut up chicken livers for her cat or ordering soy lattes under her breath in San Francisco, she knots a silk scarf around her head in the wind and has big, big and important meetings with anyone who'll listen. Listen to her big plans of turning this Trilogy of Tomato series into a grammar-school filmstrip to scare private school children with public-school techniques. Mrs. Lopez's next book will be called Putting the "Fun" Back in "Funeral."
