Sinopsis

Join Danny and his friends as they have many misadventures in a southwestern Pennsylvania steel town during the late 1950s and early 60s. The story has many memorable and odd characters.  It was a much simpler time; there were no cell phones, computers, or video games.  People still gathered around the radio to listen to 'Superman' and 'Fiber Magee and Molly'.  If they were lucky enough to have a TV, it was black and white and all kitchen appliances were white.  There was no Internet.  The closest thing to Amazon was the Sears Catalog, where you could order anything from a toy train to a Craftsman House. 
Sputnik, Echo, and who knows what were circling the earth. The local dump provided everything kids needed to keep them occupied.  There were areas in town that still had outhouses.  They were poor but didn't know it.  Kids could roam the neighborhood without any worries.  Their parents would tell them "Come home when the streetlights come on." 
If you are looking for a book like 'War and Peace' or 'Moby Dick', then look somewhere else. This book is more like Jean Shepherd's 'A Christmas Story'; if it were a movie it would be rated 'G' for general audiences.  Whether you are 12 or 112, I am sure you are going to enjoy this book as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.
