“Sit back, relax... and I’ll weave you some lies about my life” –Vincent Carl Santini Remember when you were little, and bedroom shadows loomed like monsters, and you thought sometimes that your parents weren’t your parents at all? Remember when you hated school, hated your parents, hated everything except stray dogs, illicit substances, and the Beatles? Remember when? Vincent Carl Santini does... or at least he thinks he does. And now he’s ready to spill the story of his checkered past—a story that embraces life, death, and everything in between—exactly the way he wants to remember it.
