Traversing the parallels and hoaxes of a sex-addict, within these pages depicts a random and defunct narrative of what could be considered an absolute travesty of collective insults and inane sexual debauchery and nothing but. The life of all nymphomaniacs, however, isn't just about the hunt for the next pair of legs to spread; there are those who actually fathom the depths of what it is to rot upon that all but elusive landscape...of "love." Written in the form of a journal, The Slut Always Rides Shotgun depicts a very brief time in the life of the author. Written originally to pass the time during working the overnight shift alone at a bakery, this journal eventually evolved into its current state: a novel written for the sole purpose of helping others find the ability to be honest with themselves and all those around them. This special edition of Matthes' first novel combines additional and reworked material as well as a new ending, taken from the original hand-written journal of which this story derives from. New depth, more insight, and more lyricism escalates "The Slut Always Rides Shotgun" up to its originally-intended vision.
