With a three-year prison sentence, Jack had begun his final slide downward. Had he learned anything? Jack fell out of the world for years, off the map, unseen by everybody. He never knew if he was going to wake up in a cozy refrigerator box in a downtown alley or a chilly steel bunk at the county lockup. He'd become a junkie and hardened chronic criminal. His antics had long since ceased to be amusing to those that had used to shelter him. Society no longer deemed him a wayward youth, worthy of a second chance, but instead considered him a hopeless and irredeemable plague on society. During those years, his best of times were when he lived in various punk rock squats, where he connected with a community of kindred spirits. During those years, his worst of times were when he lived under the Yesler overpass, where he continuously and furiously schemed with other junkies about how to score a hit to make their dope sickness go away.

Transgressive author Christopher J. Stockwell's absurdist and satirical take on transgressive fiction goes beyond the confined by norms paradigm and into the gutter.
