A modern day Beat combination of Rocky Balboa uppercuts and Kerouacian human perception, THE WEEKENDER exhibits the greatest fear of all rebellious writers: ending up inside the slammer with the pros.

"THE WEEKENDER is a tight fever dream drenched in dark cavity searches, Spam sandwiches, and the lonely movement of time. A modern day Beat combination of Rocky Balboa uppercuts and Kerouacian human perception, Nate Jordon's writing fires off the page like a consecrated bar fight, splattering the walls with clock springs, a raw fortitude of language, and a fair amount of blood."

- Rob Geisen, author of Beautiful Graveyards and Paper Thin

"In THE WEEKENDER, Jordon describes the greatest fear of all literarily-inclined small-time crooks: ending up inside the slammer with the pros. Fascinating characters and hilarious dialogue populate this story that manages to be both hilarious and sobering."

- Nicholas B. Morris, author of Tapeworm

"Nate Jordon obliterates all decaying museums of stuporous thought and blasts us into a fugue state of thrombosis, both potent and life-altering."

- Meg Tuite, author of Domestic Apparition and Disparate Pathos.
