Bubba is a mid-life, rite-of-passage novel that addresses contemporary 21st century society, largely through linguistic humor but also direct social dialog and commentary. The protagonist is a Naval military retiree running from a traumatic past toward a personal dream he is already living but fails to recognize. Other important themes include religion, politics and male chauvinism.
In an era of emphasis on higher education and a culture-wide push toward an informed electorate, it is good to remember what was once a common understanding, that formal education is not the only route toward knowledge. Bubba Lee Boatbum is a life-smart common man who knows when to dodge the “guvmint” and where to read between the lines of the latest political spin. He manages to live a life of honor and camaraderie by applying common sense and experiential intelligence to life's often chaotic circumstances. Bubba shows us that a good heart and good intentions still count on the field of life's everyday battles.
So, the co-authors invite you to enter the wacky, fun-loving world of Bubba Lee Boatbum, whose viewpoints on women, war, politics, females, religion, sex and young girls are shared unabashedly with all who will listen. The setting is mostly the Gulf Coast area during the year leading up to and immediately preceding the 2004 Presidential Election.
Come meet the chauvinist, yet lovable Bubba, who is hopelessly in love with his ex-wife, Samantha, and find out whether his stumbling, amorous pursuits are successful.
