About the Author
J. Thorn believes in the imaginative power of the
horror novel and the escape from reality it provides. He knows that embracing
the entire spectrum of human emotion, even its dark realms, makes for a more
meaningful and authentic life.
"The book combines a few wild adolescent tales, an Animal House-type prank or two, a couple of interviews with veteran and beginning teachers, and plenty of references to sports and rock-and-roll mixed in with fifteen years of observations about educational foibles. Self-indulgent at times, off-task often, and too obviously aiming at shocking us old farts with rap lyric vocab,
J's humanity and concern for kids still seeps through the tough guy mask."
