Product Description
Book Description
"Summer had made it so stifling up here on the fifth floor I could hardly breathe. I was sweating all over again and it was only seven-thirty. My hands were as crimson as boiled lobsters and still faintly burning. I leaned over and switched on my ancient, dust-coated portable electric fan. Then I closed my eyes and tried to find a dream."

"Hating Olivia" is the story of Max Zajack. Max's life is a rut filled with dead-end jobs and sexual and suicidal fantasies... until he meets the alluring and mysterious Olivia Aphrodite. But Olivia has a dark side... one driven by the need to make ends meet. Soon she and Max descend into a downward spiral of sex, sleaze and mutual destruction...
"Hating Olivia" is the first book release by Murder Slim Press ("The Savage Kick Literary Magazine") and features an introduction by Dan Fante ("Mooch", "Chump Change", "Spitting Off Tall Buildings") in which he hails it as "the kind of book - the kind of memoir - that must have been lived first. Survived. So strap yourself in. It's time for a real treat."
From the Publisher
Mark SaFranko's "Hating Olivia" is ideal for fans of the great low-life writers: the savage honesty of John Fante, the ballsy blasts of Bukowski, the sleazy confessionals of Dan Fante and the cutting visions of Henry Miller.
