Mister Trot from Tin Street: 2 (Trevor English)

Wynol Trot--a family man and high school teacher with a pornography habit he takes pains to keep hidden. To Trevor English the idea is simple--threaten Wynol with exposure unless a modest sum is paid. But when the blackmail doesnt go through Trevor realizes his own past makes him more vulnerable than his would-be victim--and that Wynol Trot is more amoral than he could have imagined. Praise for the Books by Pablo DStair DStair is clearly a master. Likely Jean Patrick Manchette reincarnated... --Matt Phillips author of Countdown and The Bad Kind of Lucky Somehow again and again youre drawn in...you get used to the books rhythm and follow it because the work is obsessive. We find ourselves in a languid kind of suspense bracing ourselves... --Bret Easton Ellis author of American Psycho Pablo DStair doesnt just write like a house afire he writes like the whole citys burning and these words hes putting on the page are the thing that can save us all. --Stephen Graham Jones Bram Stoker Award-winner Pablo DStair is defining the new writer [and the new film maker]. DStairs late realism needs to be included in any examination of the condition of the novel. --Tony Burgess award-winning author/screenwriter Like Kerouac before him I felt there was one roll of paper on which the story was typed. And theres a rhythm behind it. Not the speedy bop of jazz this time more an urban dubstep. Shadows and edges becoming audible. --Nigel Bird author of Smoke
