About punks
Re: punks, (available at Amazon.com) a comedic coming-of-age novel that takes a dark turn into the netherworld of state prison a la Huckleberry Finn in The Belly Of The Beast. Submission of the first chapter sparked enough interest a few years ago that a handful of literary agencies (including Trident Media Group) requested the complete MS—to no avail, however, perhaps owing to consistent breaches of political correctness. Admittedly, it tweaks a laundry list of taboos, from racism to coerced transexuality to homosexual rape, but such is existence sometimes “inside”, So hair trigger alert: graphic content and language, which is to say, not for the faint of heart, or denizens of particular ideological spheres. As one prospective editor put it, “I don’t care if its good, I won’t finish reading it.”In other words, it may prove difficult to judge solely on artistic merit, which is, of course, what this author seeks.
