IDIOTS, IMBECILES AND MORONS

About the Book

“I’ll be my own testament to the mountains of fudge I’ve moved, the rivers of chocolate I’ve forded, the forests of candy I’ve cleared and the cities of pie I’ve vanquished.” So muses our hero ReJean Zartro, Social Worker Un-extraordinaire, as he beats himself like a big palooka on a cold dawn in Brooklyn, battles donut-scarfing administrators and his nefarious supervisor Paula Perfecto, the evil nurse Cyclops, Parrot Boys under the nom de plume of Schaffer Van Vliet in Istanbul, dukes it out with Senor Eduardo Freeform Funkified, converses with a dead colleague, and struggles to stay afloat with his caseload of 230 mentally retarded adults at CRUDDI’s Gulag Day Treatment Center in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. (And you thought you were having a crappy week.)
