HOOCH TUESDAY DELIVERS THE NEVER-BEFORE PUBLISHED EARLY NOVEL FROM JACK CADY AND A MASTERCLASS IN SATIRE. FILLED WITH GHOSTS AND BIZARRE CHARACTERS. IT'S A STORY FROM A YOUNG WRITER FLEXING HIS IMAGINATIVE POWERS EARLY IN HIS CAREER.
Where could . . .
- a 1000-year-old business manager,
- a truck driver known as the last of the Indian fighters,
- a witch-in-training who is also a member of the DAR, and
- a bulldozer driver who communes with his dozer
. . . all live together perfect in harmony? Toss in a truck haunted by 14,000 Indians, plus a thoughtful ghost to tell the story, and perfection thrives at the industrial dump. These misfits and outcasts drink beer and admire the view. They relive lost loves and misunderstandings, peaceful in the company of a highly opinionated bulldozer that talks aloud. Life is good, at least until the DAR's own witch-in-training plans a party.
Then the dump starts to jump, fueled by unfortunate deliveries of grenades left over from One More War and a dose of rocket fuel, compliments of yet more war. Potato chips, high-proof hooch, dreams and decadence blow sky high in Jack Cady's scathing commentary on love, war and equality. Political correctness be damned, Cady' satire comes alive, as relevant today as it was forty years ago.
