Daytona Beach. Tourist-choked, trash-strewn, economically stunted - that Daytona Beach. Jeff, George, Ray, and the rest of their friends haunt this place, rotting under the Florida sun, their lives going nowhere as they aimlessly wander a disappearing coastline. These stories of disaffected youth and unfulfilled potential dispel the popular notion of Florida as a paradise and instead ask the reader to look closer. See this place for what it truly is: a subtropical, suburban hellscape where people are born to quit and fester forever. Welcome to the Wasteland.
