Heck, Texas

"This is a very unruly book, in the best sense of the word . . . [This] book will not have an easy life, but rather a long one, as the anger in it is part of the mood of our times."-Werner Herzog, director of Fitzcarraldo and Grizzly Man



"This book is trash."-Joel Potrykus, writer/director of Buzzard and Relaxer



Somewhere deep in East Texas, the hunt is on, fueled by self-hate, cough syrup, white whales, massive zits, freakshows, madness, dead pets, lost children, killer coffee, rats, Satan, good times, bad people, vomit, dementia, diarrhea, sex, and clowns. Your favorite brand of disease is back in stock. Welcome to Heck, Texas.



"Skillfully capture[s] the essence of a trashy Texas town. Somewhere between Eraserhead and [Linklater's] Slacker . . . Just the right kind of deadpan dark humor . . ."-Stephen-Paul Martin, author of The Ace of Lightning
