IN LINE AT WALMART WITH ALL THE OTHER DAMNED

Steve Passey

ISBN: 979-8321810118
$12.99

Cowpunk spirituals and nursery rhymes for the worst of times. Stock up on the essentials and bolt the door. 14 collected stories.

"Steve Passey’s 
In Line at Walmart with All the Other Damned deals, as all good literature should, with themes of sorrow, grief, God, philosophy, retribution and whiskey. A little bit Hemingway, a little bit Carver, and a little bit Dante’s Inferno, these stories are gritty, often hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking."

Lori Hahnel, author of 
Flicker and Vermin

“Steve Passey is the real deal. Read his new book of short stories In Line at Walmart with All the Other Damned . You’ll be glad you did. It will take you places."

Michael Lafontaine, Secret History Books

"
In Line at Walmart With All the Other Damned is a darkly hilarious, often uncomfortable, surprisingly intimate look into the lives of the bruised, and broken, and brutal. Revealed through tender moments and gritty realism, on barstools and Reservations, in diners and boxing gyms, through roman boxing gloves, straight razors, and rescue dogs, Passey bravely hollers the quiet part aloud."

Meagan Lucas, author 
Songbirds and Stray Dogs, and Here in the Dark, Editor in Chief, Reckon Review
