Midwestern Pulp
Now Available on Paperback

The framework and functionality of the modern [male] millennial appears to be based entirely upon narrative. There is no better example of this than in the cumbersome, non-coastal interior of the United States, where without the cultural distractions of a coastal city or the cultural heritage that comes with living somewhere that seasons its food, a Midwesterner can act and react to life's simple variables as they come and go. This pace of living creates a divide where one either submits to the mundaneness of the environment in the basement of their mother’s home or corrals with others, forming a group of comrades that builds a micro-culture unto their own.

This book focuses on the latter—funneling a group of real-life, completely-fictional characters that you, yourself, didn’t not grow up with, through the experience of attending the funeral of a friend. Full of life, death, humor, and heartbreak, this poorly written attempt at self-exploration and dissection of the concept of "home" will inspire you to tip more at the bar and/or call up your 8th grade girlfriend just to "see how it's goin."
