Backstraw (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781647183622)

A fictional memoir. Except when it isn't.

From a cell in Bridgeton Prison, Timothy DiAngelo looks back upon a curious life.

From a '50s Texas boyhood to a '60s Santa Monica youth; from years of overland world travel to mysterious disappearances and deaths; from friendship and family to sideshow freaks, the story weaves across 35 years of changing locales and unforgettable characters - humorous, ethereal and profane - and with equal threads of both slapstick and poignancy.
