Book excerpt: Caddie Esoterica is not a novel in the dildo style: its color and shape do not make obvious the senses it would stimulate, nor its intended mode of use. To the New Ur Country Club, on unenchanted Corpus Elvi Island, arrives Carl, a caddie, to record his passage through this strangest of seasons. Carl stands witness to rain, rape, horrific bunker play, and a great caddie effort to win and bury the body of a fallen friend. Autumn is denied. Following summer comes a super-tropical season: wood and wild reclaim the course, and golf devolves to survival bloodsport. Irreverent and comedic, crazed and lucid, lofty and lowly: from the shadowland between madness and genius comes Caddie Esoterica, a fractal seaspray of style, theme, texture and tone, and unlike any novel you will ever read. It will leave you gasping like a lungfish in the muck. Castor Spurgines, The Postformalist Review of Books **** (highest rating) invectively inventive, laconically iconoclastic.

Book excerpt: John Dunn never expected that his summer job as a caddie at the local course in Connecticut might turn into something more. The lifers who plied the loops were an ensemble of misfits and degenerates who made the caddie yard look more like a gambling hall than a country club. But Dunn came of age in those yards and on those courses, and the magnetism of the game and the lifestyle proved irresistible. One adventure after another kept him coming back summer after summer, until he found himself migrating with the seasons, looping at some of the most exquisite and exclusive golf locations in the world. Dunn crisscrossed the country on his own big loop, working inside the privet hedges while camping on the mountains, following the back roads and stumbling across unexpected moments of profound natural beauty, and embracing the freedom of what he calls the last vagabond existence in America, all while trying to decide whether to quit the loop and get a real job.
