ABOUT THE BOOK

Fat on the Vine tells the story of "lil bigsexy," an overweight, 28-year-old virgin and drug addict. Robinson's antihero is torn between the two women in his life: his born-again Christian mother and Julie, the hard-partying lesbian to whom lil bigsexy eventually loses his virginity. The author's unique writing style is reflected in a protagonist who is pushed to the brink of insanity by drugs, self-hatred, and obsession. Robinson writes without social filter or shame and his novel is as disturbing as it is beautiful.
