From Anxiety Press
Corn Chips is a brutal, funny, and unsentimentally raw coming-of-age novel about a scarred kid growing up broke and unwanted in rural Illinois. It’s a story about growing up scarred, learning to survive without heroes, and figuring out that nobody’s coming to save you—and that might be the only freedom you get.
“Corn Chips immediately transported me to my own youth of punk shows, guzzling 40s and figuring shit out. Schneider captures the adolescent boy perspective in such a radically genuine and complex way. Your heart breaks for him and, yet, you want to shake and beg him to quit breaking his own. I haven't encountered a young male character quite like this in literary fiction before.”
-Jillian Luft, author of Scumbag Summer
“This isn’t the mythical ‘80’s of pastels, neon, and MTV-ready pop hits drenched in reverb. This is the world of the lowest of the middle-class, hardcore punk, and the grimy allure of the city over the monotony of the rural. Reading Corn Chips is like walking into a cool underground record store and having your heart stomped to a pulp all at the same time. I’m not saying that Corn Chips is the great novel of the 1980’s, but I sure as hell am not denying it.”
-Troy Schoultz, author of The Biography of Runaway Dogs
