Of Men And Maggots

By Luis Blasini

Book Overview

John Poston is a drifting American on the run from his own mistakes. Rocko Tapia is a young man trapped in a world of crime, poverty, and quiet desperation. When their lives collide in a haze of sex, addiction, and illusion, they convince themselves they can escape-to California, to freedom, to something better.

They were wrong.

What begins as a reckless road trip across the Southwest spirals into a raw, unflinching descent into obsession, dependency, and the brutal realities of life on the margins.

Of Men and Maggots is a gritty literary novel of survival, identity, and the dark side of human connection-set against the harsh backdrop of Mexico and the American borderlands.
