Don Inferno

A well-meaning group of gifted friends, a wily investor, and a vain business mogul find humorous and bizarre challenges in the unique environment of Portland, Oregon, and the Northwest. Local self-help culture collides with the demeaning manipulations of local politics and business, when a homeless teen center begins to turn into a “stocking pen” for breeders at a Northwest polygamous cult. A manipulative, sleep-deprived tyrant attempts to change his ways through New Age therapy and seeks to immortalize himself by commissioning a self-aggrandizing opera. Don Inferno is Jug Brown’s third book.
