Holy shit, this fucking book. A collection of loosely-related first-person narratives. The first 120 pages were shocking and blackly funny. The characters are detestable, but that’s the point. Look, if you read novels to escape social media, this ain’t for you.

The owner of the Dallas Cowboys hands the team over to his son and leaves his genius daughter, Nina, a lowly indoor league football team called the Patterson Pork. B story involves a criminal mastermind attempting to steal a Dalí from Rikers Island. I liked it.
