| Publisher Description: WARNING - DO NOT READ THIS BOOK WHILE EATING, IT IS A CHOKING HAZARD This novel tells the hilarious tale of the senior year of high school for the Class of 1977 in Canton, Illinois. Most of the characters in the book were introduced in the author's first novel, Cubs V Cardinals, and this one picks up the story ten years later. As with his other novel, this book tells a classic American story of small town Midwestern culture, with the twist being that it is told from the perspective of one of the few black members of the student body, Jimmy Williams. The humor is vulgar, raucous, timeless, supremely sophomoric and there is a lesson embedded in every joke. If you can read this book and not laugh out loud at least once, please contact the author for a refund. Be advised, you will be tested. It is very doubtful you can make it to the start of the first chapter without cracking up. As a bonus, included are two essays, guaranteed to score a B from any high school literature teacher who has not read this book, and of course guaranteed to score an F if they have. The main goal of this piece is to advise all readers of the seventy seven rules by which to live. If you follow them, you too will have so many funny stories to tell by the time you reach sixty you'll be able to write a book about them too. Enjoy, and never forget, 77 Rules |
