Fast-paced, panicky, comic, stressful, insufferable, and not without moments of grace. On page one, the narrator, a barkeep, is approached by thugs who want to pressure him into using their mob-controlled garbage service. The story progresses from there. The story is told in a matter-of-fact style by a narrator who defines resilience and individuality. A book of desperation but also of hope for the human spirit.
