Peopled by a galaxy of fringe operators and hoodlums, tattered no-hopers and doom-drenched true believers, sadistic children and tormented hooch hounds - and not least, a girl called Spoogeface - \u003cstrong\u003eTUND\u003c\/strong\u003e is a swirling landscape of meltdowns, terrifying visions and punch-drunk epiphanies. Irreverent and iconoclastic, it probes the desolation and cruelties, desperation and contradictions, the hazards and hoopla, of life in an unstable and emotionally crippled age. Brimming with riotous panache, anarchic soul and sinewy, exultant writing, \u003cstrong\u003eTUND\u003c\/strong\u003e is sure to stimulate and dazzle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThor Garcia\u003c\/strong\u003e was born in Long Beach, California.
