Chicken-scratch
Publisher Description
Chicken-scratch is a gritty, heavily stylized, and flamboyant entry in the Interstates anthology: the first-person account of an aimless ex-convict desperately seeking a transformative hustle. Aspiring to escape the cyclical plight of America’s impoverished Deep South, the feisty narrator is a tragic tour-de-force of acerbic wit, half-baked machinations, and reliable failures: a befuddled, salacious, a dispensable soul who finds himself ignorantly embroiled in the shady schemings of shadowy syndicates.
