Bubbles Yablonsky is the fictional protagonist of the ''Bubbles'' series of screwball mysteries by Sarah Strohmeyer. She first appeared in ''Bubbles Unbound'', published in 2001; as of 2006, she has appeared in six novels by Strohmeyer strictly about Bubbles, with an extra cameo in Strohmeyers "The Cinderella Pact," appearing as a friend of the main character's sister. ''Bubbles Unbound'' got the Agatha Award for best first novel in 2001. It has been translated to French in 2006 (''Bubbles se lâche'' - Fleuve Noir - ISBN 2-265-08217-1 ). ==The character== Bubbles is a high-energy beautician-cum-rookie-reporter. She is a divorced single mom, self-described as a "Polish-Lithuanian Barbie doll in Lehigh, Pennsylvania," a town based loosely on Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. She appears as a kind of hybrid between Marilyn Monroe and ''Columbo''. She has an ex-husband, "Dan the Man", and a daughter, Jane, a rebellious teenager with Kool-Aid colored hair and black lipstick. Bubbles has a degree in journalism and is a freelance reporter for the local newspaper, ''The Lehigh News-Times''. The series covers adventures and misadventures with Bubbles and other characters - Steve Stiletto (a photojournalist and Mel Gibson lookalike), Lulu Yablonsky (Bubbles's mother), Genevieve (a gun-toting septuagenarian), Sandy (her best friend and salon owner), and Lorena Ludwig (a photographer with ''The News-Times'' with anger management issues). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bubbles Yablonsky」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
