A coming-of-age story about a young man called Stanley Spank who lives the life of a champion layabout with his best mate Jerry Dooley, supplemented by his hard-working parents, Greg and Brenda Spank. Stanley’s life is one of endless days of nothing except for drinking, smoking, and fantasising about a life that seemed out of reach. Things change when Jerry lands a job abroad, leaving Stanley to rethink his own life choices, and out of a random act of desperation, a lucky break is bestowed upon Stanley that transforms his life. The self-styled lazy layabout is thrown into a world of glamour and fast women with lots of cash, and he is taken on a journey into the fast lane where, along the way, he meets a beautiful girl called Ami. Stanley’s life is turned around, and the lure of earning good money along with female attention and a lifestyle he could only dream becomes a complex moral dilemma. A fun tale of twists and larger-than-life characters, which are interwoven into Stanley’s journey of growth and experiences, The Life and Times of Stanley Spank will endear, delight, shock, and question the morality of his decisions as this small-town boy becomes the centre of a lot of people’s lives without realising it.
