This book has stories. The stories are about friendship. They are about turtles and beached whales and demonic GPS systems and making out . . . hard.

The protagonist, known as Buttcrack, is a thirty-something man trying to navigate high school life, where he faces ridicule from younger peers. Seeking acceptance, he attempts to buy beer for a party but encounters a series of setbacks, including losing his wallet and being denied service without an ID. Complicating matters, he faces harassment from a group of rednecks and finds himself abandoned by his girlfriend. Undeterred, Buttcrack is resolute in his quest to join the teenage party scene, showcasing his determination against the odds.

This beer soaked, degenerate coming of age story follows the day-to-day trials in the darkly hysterical world of Grimboli, a chronically unemployed nobody who moves listlessly among a group of young adults from the wrong side of the tracks to an endless litany of pathetic and crazed women, bums, drunks, sordid rooms, dreary embraces, and drunken brawls. Littered with psychic debris, self-loathing, and everything else Grimboli can find to take his mind off his completely unfulfilling life.
