Hope Street and Other Short Stories is an exploration into the absurd, the bizarre, and the terrifying. It is the second installment of what author Brian Shovelton is referring to as The Waltham Papers. There is a little bit of something for everyone in these stories, or maybe there is a little bit of nothing for no one. From an orangutan superhero to a tooth fairy made of actual teeth, a priest with an odd penchant for goats to a strange lad who defecates eggrolls, the characters range from the sublime to the ridiculous. Guaranteed to offend and entertain, Hope Street and Other Short Stories will surely get a reaction. Hopefully Donald Trump reads the story about him.
