SOLVED!: Overweight guy, New Orleans, Digestive problems [s]

[Karin]

This book is about a socially inept, not very likable guy living in New Orleans. I remember he would lie on his bed on his side and massage his "valve" in order to relieve...gut pain? Thanks all!
and glad to find this group!!

That sounds like "A Confederacy of Dunces" by John Kennedy Toole, but it's been awhile since I've read it. Hope that helps.

[Laura]

Definitely A Confederacy of Dunces.

This can be moved to "solved." Another vote for "Confederacy of Dunces," without a doubt.

Well, I'm waiting for Karin to confirm and move it. If she doesn't will one of you please post again in about a week and I'd be willing to move it then. I figure we have to give those asking for help time to come back and verify, even though I believe you all. I'm not sure she'll find the thread if I move it.

[Karin]

Thanks all! That's it, for sure. Sorry for the delay--school started back this week...
So, how do I move it to solved? Good reader, not so good computer skills.

[Lisa]

Karin, I moved it. Thanks.
