Clowns, Charlatans and Colorful Characters (Stinky Stories) By Peter Grant

Known By the Company He Keeps Even with perfectly shaped, muscular shoulders it’s no small burden being the best looking man on the planet. I know what you’re thinking, “HA – good looking = easy sex.” Alas, Gentle Reader there’s more to it as you will learn as you absorb the fragrant prose contained between these covers, electronic or cardboard. These pages concern Stinky (né Edgar) Carter, the person with the aforementioned, perfect shoulders and his many friends, relatives and adversaries. He wears a 42-regular if you’re thinking of knitting him a sweater. While it’s true that good-looking people are attracted to other good-looking people, so are colorful characters, clowns and charlatans. Stinky tackles more than his share of such folk in these tales including a prep school headmaster who prefers naps to academics, a fabulously wealthy, four-times widowed woman (don’t be sad – they all died happy) who styles herself the “People’s Princess of the Arts,” several of her proletariat protégées, all of whose artistic endeavors are of questionable taste, a purveyor of technologically advanced underwear plus assorted thugs, a hopeless romantic whose head looks like a joint project by Brancusi and Braque and a sexually adventurous...sorry, that could be any of the ones already mentioned. Most of the stories are separately available. Two stories, “It’s Stinky at the Lake” and “Stinky Underwear” are short, peppy tales with overlapping casts that are only available in this collection. Eddie’s fans will be pleased that he finally gets some sexy undies. Getting the recipes for the cocktails served at the fifth nuptials of the “People’s Princess” is worth the price of the book, and they're yours if you go to the “Contact Us” page of the website. That’s a hint it’s time to stop reading for free. If you’re still not convinced, there’s also a Loch Ness monster, but, that’s all you’re getting out of me right now. About Stinky Stories The bestselling Amazon series, “Stinky Stories” includes almost eighty comic short stories that span over fifty years of Stinky and Eddie’s lives. Stinky is chatty and insouciant, and while Eddie may not say as much, when something needs to be done, he’s already doing it. They’re as close as Brooklyn and Queens and as unlikely to separate. Stinky doesn’t go looking for trouble, but he can’t hide from it. It’s part of the “best looking man on the planet” package. His work and family connections tie him to all the city’s civic leaders and the crazier their ideas, the more likely they are to ask Stinky for help. Stinky and Eddie would like to live quietly, but lucky for us that never happens. Stinky and Eddie are supported by a collection of outrageous guest stars and an ever expanding cast of relatives. The stories are witty and literate and readers don’t have to leave their brains in a jar to enjoy them. Whether it’s a flat-out farce, bedroom comedy, sexy romp, sly satire or screwball family intrigue, you’re never far from a happy ending in every Stinky story. Isn’t that what we really need these days?
