Irreverent and imaginative. The Last Payphone On The West Coast delivers compelling characters who face surprises both fantastic and alluring. A fun read and a reminder to look for magic.

A survey of the American soul. These characters fit their skins as best they can and offer no complaints. It’s as though they’re reality in corporeal form looking into a tarnished mirror and seeing nothing but pure potential. They’ve bought the ticket and are taking the ride.
