Hotrod Billy and Friends

Well written unaffected and ringing with authenticity says R. Crumb about this offbeat hard knocks American story that plays out on the mean streets of New Orleans and other big cities as three dropouts from a small town in upstate New York hit the open road in their search for better pizza good live music and the cheapest rent in the whole USA. An entertaining yet at times harrowing journey through the back alleys and all-night diners of Reagan's minimum-wage America it has a minor Bukowski thread to it and is sure to become a milestone in the annals of slacker literature.
