Sinopsis

'One of the most ecstatic, deranged, and propulsive books IâÇÖve read, Meth-DTF careens wildly through the fucked dreamscape of Los Angeles. The love child of Gasper Noé and Edouard Levé, Shane Jesse Christmass is one of our great cult novelists.'-áKate Durbiná(author,áHoarders)'METH-DTF is a hypnotic, lunatic thrill ride. With the antic, paranoiac stutter of William S. BurroughsâÇÖs cut-ups and fold-ins and Rudolph WurlitzerâÇÖs altered apocalyptic âÇÖ70s novels, Shane Jesse Christmass creates a hothouse mindspace meltdown where sex, booze, and drugs build and dismantle worlds. Our narrator guides us through a jangling, porous Los Angeles. Where weâÇÖre going, we donâÇÖt know, but itâÇÖs all velocity and addled noticing. The details jump and rattle. We are absolutely flying, and itâÇÖs gritty, funny, and scary.'-áNate Lippensá(author,áMy Dead Book)'METH-DTF is a schizophrenic landfill of corpses, pill bottles, crop circles, Burger King, horny billionaires, flip flops, tobacco, aliens, orgasms, crying infants, designer aphrodisiacsáá- and itâÇÖs all on fire. Shane Jesse Christmass writes with the discordant rhythm of an erratic heartbeat, rendering the reader restless. Enter at your own risk.'áá-áDanielle Cheloskyá(author,áCheatá& founder ofáThe Waiting Room)'Entering Shane Jesse ChristmassâÇÖ world is always a thrill, and Meth-DTF confirms this but somehow this time it is with an even wilder abandon that feels new.áVHS tracking blurs through our imagination as we try and keep up with the latest literary death-trip that SJXSJX has strapped us to. WeâÇÖre going through American suburbs and cities with a nihilistic pace, trying to get rest in damp and sweaty motels where nothing stands still and the paranoia practically drips from the paragraphs - the radio is constantly changing, so are the clothes, the era and faces of those around you. The narrator and his sidekick Samuel - who maybe died a little while back but who maybe didnâÇÖt - not that it even matters because thereâÇÖs some new fresh hell coming already - try to offer some guidance along their hallucinatory mission as the pages continually cause my pulse to increase and my imagination to rattle.ChristmassâÇÖ has a knack of writing sentences that have a way of connecting with you in a real, physical way. You feel it in your chest. They raise your stomach acid to your throat. If youâÇÖre holding this book and your hands arenâÇÖt shaking, then youâÇÖre doing it wrong.'-áThomas Mooreá(author, In Your Dreams, Alone)This is a story about an imaginary city. an imaginary city called Los Angeles.I am a science fiction novel with no science fiction references.
