Plato's Guardian - Thomas Steele - Bog

The author tasked me, as his editor, to come up with an accurate description of Plato's Guardian, and I must say, I am at a loss. It's a kind of fictional memoir of a parole officer in a wholly corrupt, fictional county, I guess. There's some type of plot. I don't really know. What I do know is that you'd better have both a really strong stomach and a high tolerance for really dark humor, if you're going to try to read it. And I mean really dark, like, pitch black. Seriously, there's a joke in here about a dead baby. I found a lot of it both highly offensive and disgusting. Honestly, there's a good bit of time where he talks about such scatological topics as Cincinnati steamers, political corruption, Chicago hotplates, referential humor, Jersey dumpsters, explicit sex acts, upper-decking toilets, and how to clean human excrement out of shag carpeting. So, if you like to either read about, or understand those things, this book is for you. Quite frankly, this author scares me a little.
