Any dudes got any leads on this? Is this new shit that has come to light? Goes for 15 clams, or dollars, or what have you (you know, the publishers have to feed the monkey)..............



Cathleen Falsani, religion writer for the Chicago Sun Times.....just happens to be a big fan of the Coen Brothers too. And that just happens to be the topic of her next book, The Dude Abides: The Gospel According to the Coen Brothers, due from Zondervan this fall......

A Zondervan press release says the book "will look at the filmmakers' presentation of serious existential and theological questions using the dark, intelligent humor and epic storytelling that have been their trademarks in more than a dozen films during the past 25 years. . . . Falsani will investigate the theological, mythological, moral, ethical, religious and philosophical content and what their overarching message -- their "Gospel" -- might be."
