Low Rent is a semi-autobiographical novel wherein TommyJ reveals his nefarious past in numerous short stories he has written in a series of letters to his new friend, a Las Vegas hooker he nicknames Caribou. From shining new light upon the tumultuous times most youth face while growing up in the modern urban-American setting, to reshaping the notion of the classic rags-to-riches story, Low Rent is a stumble through the life story of a man who, despite a very extensive, very lucrative criminal career, manages to avoid ever serving time in prison. From stabbings and drug overdoses, to finding himself camping on an island with a homeless man that he has taken LSD with, Thomas Jordan takes us on a vivid stroll through his Low Rent world.
