novel” world. It includes micro (flash) fiction from the Manx
Tales, Art Fag (previously published in LAST CALL), and many
other stories. If the reader is a fan of Bukowski’s stories or
the work of Jim Thompson, then El Pagano is a must read.

Review Excerpts:
“I enjoyed reading El Pagano…still producing tough, sharp and
emotional material.” – Alex Thiltges
“Out Bukowski’s Bukowski!”
“The Manx Tales by RD Armstrong... 15 semi-autobiographical
tales of urban alienation & isolation – very internal, very
intense. Plenty of ironic humor, & wry sex.” -- John Berbrich
