YOUR MONKEY’S SHMUCK derived from the set of old unpublished short science-fiction type stories I had spent some years sending around to various magazines without success in the late 1970’s. They were companion pieces to a full-length novel, The Planet of Fuck, which has never seen the light of day – yet! Eventually Flamingo bought into the idea of working a mad tale around these stories. But the real irony of all this crazy stuff is: it’s not really a work of fiction!! Sometimes the facts really are very very strangeDanny Hohenlohe is a maverick foreigner among the glass towers of Manhattan, A.D. 1980, determined to succeed in placing his bizarre short stories with the literary or science-fiction magazines. Alas, nothing is on offer save failure. But when Danny’s host and best friend, the eternal optimist Ben Tishman, disappears en route to a Long Island sugar daddy, the increasingly eccentric world of Danny’s ‘real’ environment, and that of his stories, begin to ominously converge. Will Danny H- break out of the straitjacket of his own imagination, or will he be overtaken by the world of DREKULA, THE THING IN THE BOG, THE GLOBBLE VILLAGE, GODZILLA’S MOTHER IN LAW and many many more…?
A fast moving tale of no money, total powerlessness and absolute rejection set in the world of low-finance and down-market takeaways…
To all those who have suffered the slings and arrows of REJECTION SLIP SHOCK this book is dedicated in solidarity. LA LOTTA CONTINUA
