FOUL TERRITORY

THE CHRONICLE CONTINUES in 1989

Putting Camp Souviens (and the demise of Troop 666) behind him, Calvin Connor focuses on finishing high school. But his latest choices pull him back into the spotlight, like that one time on Sean Corgan's front yard ...

FALLING IN, FALLING OUT

Calvin falls in love with Kitty Howe, the only blind student at Axsubeen High, creating a celebrity couple that's the talk of the town. His friendship/rivalry with Art Maguire reaches a fulcrum point over (of all things) vocabulary. And Calvin's destiny as a major league sensation begins in earnest after a heated moment in the high school cafeteria.

HANGING CURVEBALLS, LOW-HANGING FRUIT

If only the little wanker hadn't brought an orange in for lunch that day ...

No work of fiction has ever captured the rivalry of teen boys, the agony of Algebra tests, and the intoxicating sting of a hit of Binaca right before you put a move on a girl quite like this one!

WHAT THE CRITICS ARE SAYING …

The U.S. Review of Books recommended Striking Out but couldn’t quite bring itself to do so with Foul Territory, claiming that while the book was “engaging [and] often hilarious” and “sure to titillate many readers,” its content was “longer on vulgarity than a hard-edged plot” and that there isn’t “much on the mind of Calvin other than sex.”

Were they right?

Foul Territory isn’t just boner foibles and crudeness. Calvin goes to Mass. He does confession. Sure, his rock-hard flute ends up in a Mall Chick’s hand that one time, but he was a victim of circumstance!

As for “vulgarity,” that’s some bullshit. There’s only 175 instances of fuck, just the 15 occurrences each of cunt and pussy …

Maybe the reviewer sat at the Proverbs Patrol lunch table with all the other prudes!
