The Cloaca

This book will remind you why you love reading. The stories included in Andrew Hood’s sophomore collection are messy, beautiful, gross, funny, personal. The Cloaca is a train wreck of awesomeness. It’s your high school gym coach, drunk and dishing dirt on all the other teachers on the cross-town bus—a stomach-turning spectacle that’ll make you laugh out loud now, feel bad later. You won’t be able to put this book down or look away for an instant.
