Synopsis "Team Rodent: How Disney Devours the World "

"Disney is so good at being good that it manifests an evil; so uniformly efficient and courteous, so dependably clean and conscientious, so unfailingly entertaining that it's unreal, and therefore is an agent of pure wickedness. . . . Disney isn't in the business of exploiting Nature so much as striving to improve upon it, constantly fine-tuning God's work."--from TEAM RODENT TEAM RODENTHow Disney Devours America "Revulsion is good. Revulsion is healthy. Each of us has limits, unarticulated boundaries of taste and tolerance, and sometimes we forget where they are. Peep Land is here to remind us; a fixed compass point by which we can govern our private behavior. Because being grossed out is essential to the human experience; without a perceived depravity, we'd have nothing against which to gauge the advance or decline of culture; our art, our music, our cinema, our books. Without sleaze, the yardstick shrinks at both ends. Team Rodent doesn't believe in sleaze, however, nor in old-fashioned revulsion. Square in the middle is where it wants us all to be, dependable consumers with predictable attitudes. The message, never stated but avuncularly implied, is that America's values ought to reflect those of the Walt Disney Company, and not the other way around."

Carl Hiaasen nació el 12 de marzo de 1953 en Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Desde niño mostró pasión por la escritura, incentivado por su padre al regalarle una máquina de escribir. Se graduó en periodismo en 1974 y comenzó su carrera como reportero en el Miami Herald desde 1976, donde trabajó en distintos roles hasta convertirse en columnista de opinión entre 1985 y 2021.

Paralelamente a su labor periodística, Hiaasen inició su carrera literaria en los años ochenta colaborando con William D. Montalbano en varias novelas de misterio. Su debut en solitario llegó en 1986 con Tourist Season, una comedia satírica ambientada en Florida. Desde entonces ha publicado numerosas novelas para adultos, muchas de ellas bestsellers, famosas por mezclar humor mordaz, acción y una crítica corrosiva a la corrupción política y el ecologismo descuidado, todo ello con un estilo muy centrado en su estado natal.

También ha disfrutado de gran éxito entre lectores jóvenes. Su novela Hoot ganó un prestigioso reconocimiento en la literatura infantil y fue adaptada al cine. Además, ha escrito títulos como Bad Monkey —convertido recientemente en serie de televisión— y diversos libros de humor y sátira política.

Hiaasen es considerado uno de los grandes cronistas sarcásticos de Florida, combinando un compromiso ambiental con un humor irreverente que ha conquistado a miles de lectores.
