Pill Hill

Pill Hill, Nicholas Breutzman’s darkly funny and utterly heartbreaking memoir, plunges the reader into a world of horrifying Tinder dates, flea markets, lizard people, child protective services, black holes, time travel, and stress-induced psychosis.

Nic and Henry–father and son–stumble on an old forgotten
park and make a bizarre discovery. Someone marked all the trees with wads of
chewed gum! Who is the gum bandit?

Reeling from recent family upheaval, Nic navigates the brave
new world of single parenthood. Meanwhile, his ex-wife descends into addiction,
abuse, and homelessness. Amid the turmoil, he becomes increasingly and
desperately obsessed with exposing the gum vandal. Can Nic rise to the occasion
and come to terms with his new reality? Or will he let the past drag him back
into despair and denial, threatening the thing he holds most dear: his
relationship with Henry, his son?
