Jim Gavin, “Smelly Gary’s Luau”

Two toilet fixture salesmen hit the road.

(from Zyzzyva, Fall 2007)

This story is ripe with depressing details of Cheetos, toilet talk and uncomfortable interactions between sad men. Funny but not very challenging. I’m not sure why the title or the ending are what they are. But that’s okay. It’s fun. The story kept me in the moment.
