"A poignant examination of the toll addiction takes."- SCHOOL
LIBRARY JOURNAL "An unforgettable cautionary tale."- FOREWORD "Puts
the dark in comedy and sheds some light on an addict's circuitous
path to uncertainty." - KIRKUS Julian is going to change his life!
Get off the couch, get a job, stop disappointing everyone he loves.
But first: maybe a couple of pills? Being the mayor's son comes
with a lot of pressure: pressure to conform, perform, and live up
to expectations. But Julian's opting out of it all. He's living on
his girlfriend's couch, dealing drugs, and watching the days pass,
empty and unfulfilled. It . . . wasn't too bad, to be honest. At
least, not until Dana flushed his stash and booted him to the
street. Alone, adrift, broke, and jonesing, Julian has burned his
last bridge, his schemes have gone from "moronic" to "tied up in an
abandoned mine shaft," and the tiny town of Piney Bluff is swiftly
running out of safe harbors for its most fortunate son. It's time
for Julian to take some steps, but first he has to find a way out
of purgatory. An awkward, wince-worthy, and hilarious companion
piece to creator Jon Allen's previous work, The Lonesome Era,
Julian in Purgatory is a wild safari through one kid's bad choices
and worse consequences.
