Summary: unplugged raucous snorting laughter
Comment: Don't get too serious, and you'll find a damned funny book. Pooh in leather - so hardcore silly. Eeyore as the depressive we've always known he is. S&M in the Hundred Acre Wood.

Summary: a quick buck
Comment: I thumbed through this book at Barnes and Noble and its not much more than wierd drawing. Finley is trying to cash in on her name

Summary: What have they done to my Pooh?
Comment: Thanks to a series of successful books and videos, Winnie the Pooh and his playmates in the 100 Acre Wood have become some of the best-loved characters in children's entertainment. "Pooh Unplugged," by Karen Finley, is a merciless satire of these characters and their world. Pooh and company walking around with graphically portrayed penile erections, wearing bondage gear, and making sexual advances towards each other--this is typical of Finley's work in this book.
I have to admit, I found a few of the drawings briefly amusing. But on the whole, I found "Pooh Unplugged" to be a cheesy and crude undertaking. Finley's "satire" is, in my opinion, simplistic and uninspired.
I should note that I do defend Finley's right as an artist to make a parody of anything she wants to mock. But I don't see much of a point to this weak effort, whose main goal seems to be to merely shock.
