Book Description
"Introduction to Cocaine Bear" is a book by Matthew Kyler about the infamous case of a black bear that was found dead in 1985 in the woods of Georgia, with over 70 pounds of cocaine strapped to its back. The bear had apparently ingested the cocaine, which led to its death. The book, which is part history and part fiction, seeks to unravel the mystery surrounding this bizarre incident. It explores the life of the bear, a former circus performer called Pablo, as well as the lives of the people who crossed paths with him - including drug smugglers, law enforcement officials, and a young woman named Bo Massey, who finds herself in possession of the bear's body. Through a series of interconnected stories, Kyler weaves a tapestry of Southern Gothic-style tales that revolve around the bizarre circumstances of the bear's life and death. The book is at once a darkly comic crime story, a meditation on the human condition, and a haunting portrait of a place and time. Ultimately, "Introduction to Cocaine Bear" is a captivating and thought-provoking meditation on the folly of human ambition and the unpredictable nature of life.
