The novel follows the pint-sized but relentlessly ambitious Johnny Havoc, whose oversized ego and relentless pursuit of women repeatedly plunge him into increasingly absurd situations involving military mix-ups, espionage, mistaken identities and romantic chaos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlending broad slapstick with spy spoof and sexual farce, Jakes delivers a deliberately over-the-top adventure that owes as much to the screwball comedies of Mack Sennett as it does to the hard-boiled exploits of Mickey Spillane. Filled with improbable escapades, comic misunderstandings and satirical takes on Cold War-era masculinity, \u003cem\u003eMaking It Big\u003c\/em\u003e is a colourful example of the humorous adult paperbacks that flourished during the late 1960s, offering an entertaining snapshot of the era's pop culture and changing attitudes toward sex and comedy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome creases on the covers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rumorbooks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43337750511693,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/7882\/1709\/files\/IMG_1352_df7699f3-049a-4c1e-be3b-6001fd7c7664.jpg?v=1785647726","url":"https:\/\/rumorbooks.com\/products\/chewsday-dan-greenburg-copy","provider":"Rumorbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
