Fiction

Jesus Swept
by James Protzman

"Lean, mean, irreverent, and perverse only begin to describe this comic and outrageous satire on Southern archetypes. You could say, Harry Crews meets Christopher Moore in a head-butt! Is it  "Do good. Be nice, Have fun." "Do. Be. Have." "Do behave." or "Doobie have"? The answer will come to you through James Protzman's clever, fast-paced, and imaginative prose."   —Vicki Hendricks, Cruel Poetry, Iguana Love, Sky Blues, Voluntary Madness
