Reminder: My debut novel, WAXED AND FEATHERED, is out now!
Synopsis:
Fresno, California, 2089. The Marcello Candy Company is a confectionary empire that has made a fortune selling heavily addictive pharmaceutical sweets to the public. As the company’s youngest heirs, Vittoria and Giovanni Marcello have had the luxury of indulging in endless fleeting fancies while riding comfortably on the coattails of their family’s success. However, when their knack for being nothing but unambitious failures poses too great a risk of tarnishing the Marcello name during a pivotal moment for the company, the siblings find themselves disinherited, disowned, and evicted. Directionless and lacking basic survival skills, what ensues are strange, desperate, fantastic, frightening, and salacious journeys into the underbelly of the city that their family has made a fortune exploiting.
You will probably like it if you enjoy Repo! the Genetic Opera (2008), Rock & Rule (1983), Phantom of the Paradise (1974), or 19th century American proto-science fiction.
Author is an Arab-American, transgender man. The story is at least partially informed by this information. It's informed even more by the fact that he listens to a lot of kick ass music. 🦇
