J. Andersen loves to play with expectations. An ode to a city turns into a collection of its flaws. A beautiful waitress takes her belly button off at night. An embarrassed son watches his father choke to death on the very thing the son hates so much. Through experimental form and style, this collection explores the human condition, the nature of reality, and the thoughts we often keep to ourselves.A Nasty Piece of Work-Volume 1 is a collection of short fiction, poetry, and memoir written to entertain and provoke thought. It will appeal to fans of experimental writing, offering something different in comparison to other mainstream works.
