Abstract This is what it must feel like to drive a muscle car. It is full of racy one-liners and insightful observations about the importance of wearing the right sneakers on the right day. It tackles issues as large and ominous as violence against women and mental health issues with deceptive ease and humour. It is relentlessly honest. It has mermaids in it. A granny who blows up the Magistrate’s Court to avoid prosecution. And a Tamagotchi. This is Mermaid Fillet.
