Description

Cover art by R. Crumb In this uproarious novel, ridiculous characters emerge from San Francisco's counter-cultural underground to unleash their melancholy and psycho-drama on an unsuspecting world. Poets and vampires, drag queens and performance artists, musicians and strippers co-mingle throughout a yearlong hangover. Where will it end Is there a 12-step programme for these extreme cases Longhi's ability to render distinctly memorable characters and zero in on subterranean absurdity keeps the reader laughing throughout.
