A brand-new Hap and Leonard series collection chock full of Joe R. Lansdale's inimitable blend of humor, mayhem, and insight, Of Mice and Minestrone delivers never-before-seen stories, a selection of the boys' favorite recipes, and an introduction from New York Times bestselling crime author Kathleen Kent.

Hap Collins looks just like a good ol' boy. But from his misspent youth on, his best compatriot is Leonard Pine, who is black, gay, and the ultimate outsider. Inseparable friends, Hap and Leonard climb into the boxing ring, visit each other's families, get in bar fights, and just go fishing-all the while confronting racists, righting wrongs, and eating a whole lot of delicious food.

So pull up a seat and sit a spell. Master storyteller Joe R. Lansdale has cooked up a new passel of tales for you about the unlikeliest duo East Texas has to offer, created by his own self

About Hap and Leonard
Hap and Leonard are Joe R. Lansdale's beloved, highly-unlikely East Texan crime-fighting duo, immortalized in over twenty novels and short story collections. Hap Collins's liberal politics don't sit well with his neighbors; Vietnam veteran Leonard Pine is black, conservative, and gay. Together, as amateur detectives, and muscle for hire, they run roughshod over bullies, criminals, and bigots of all stripes.

About the Hap and Leonard TV series
Lansdale's duo made their screen debuts in the Hap and Leonard Sundance TV series, with Michael K. Williams (The Wire), James Purefoy (The Following), and Christina Hendricks (Mad Men).
