The Hood Cooper Story

This thing is different than anything else. It's so expertly vacuolated! It enables me somehow to create-to hang my own literary entrails on the skeleton of elemental form. By camouflaging its native interior light it somehow unveils my own. Weird. -Shauna Reaves (high school English teacher) We sit around at night with Hood Cooper and a stop-watch and see who can read it the longest without bustin' up. -Mike Brewster (mechanic) My friends say I'm lying when I tell them I get it. Plus my parents leave me alone now. -Trevor Langley (seventh-grader) Before reading Hood Cooper; An Urban Tale I was diagnosed as being clinically neurotic. Reading Hood Cooper did not relieve my neurosis. It did however seem to coat it in a kind of paranoiac psychosis. -Skeeter McCoy (meter reader) I like this book. It reminds me of .... my sofa. -Willa-Jean (housewife)
