"Set in the late 1990s, Shuck describes with great clarity and verve the last gasp of a gritty Manhattan."-Bruce LaBruce, film director

Shuck is the intense, dazzling diary of a male hustler in New York who tries to manage his reputation as the city's porn star du jour when he's not dumpster diving, tweaking, or trying to get published. A remarkable peep show of a novel about what binds artists and prostitutes, and the collateral damage of what happens when they try to recover what they have lost.

Daniel Allen Cox is a former Inches cover model, video porn star, and interviewer for the New York Waste. He is the author of the novella Tattoo This Madness In (Dusty Owl Press), and lives in Montreal, Canada.
