Dot waitresses on roller skates at the Dairy Bob, doesn't care for smoking, at least partly on account of her dad having never returned from a cigarette run, and carries on the family tradition of philosophizing. Life hasn't done her any favors in her 17 years so far. But if there was ever a heroine built for turning things upside down and seeing what shakes out, it's Dot. Determined to find out who she is and why she's the way she is, an opportunity presents itself when her heretofore-unknown uncle suddenly moves his camper into the front yard.

As in his classic novels The Bottoms and The Magic Wagon, Lansdale instills place with character and character with place. Here is an overlooked world and a cast of real folks that prove unforgettable, all rendered in one of American fiction's most authentic voices.

This coming-of-age tale uses small-town Texas as a “slice of Americana” and weaves it all together with a thousand of the weirdest similes you’ve ever read or heard. This white thrash cast of weirdos makes for a funny and heartwarming story. And Kasey was such a great narrator!

White Trash and loving it

Great story, and she is the best narrator I have ever listened to. Will be looking for more of his stories, and her narration.

Loved it.
