    About this ebook

    About the Book

    Jukebox Music is a collection of poems written in a lyrical yet gritty and uncensored free-flow style. Like all of Tony Nesca's books it is a unique and singular work, full of music, sexual energy and tons of fringe-living barroom experiences.

    About the Author

    Tony Nesca was born in Torino, Italy in 1965 and moved to Canada at the age of three. He was raised in Winnipeg but relocated back to Italy several times until finally settling in Winnipeg in 1980. He taught himself how to play guitar and formed an original rock band playing the local bars for several years. At the age of twenty-seven he traded his guitar for a Commodore 64 and started writing seriously. He has published six chapbooks of stories and poems (which he used to sell straight out of his knapsack at local dives and bookstores), six novels, four books of poetry, one short story collection, and has been an active contributor to the underground lit scene for fifteen years, being published in innumerable magazines both online and in print. He currently resides in Winnipeg.

      Grandmas Almost Say The Funniest Things About Cocks

      Oct 14, 2021

      DURING the war, my grandma worked in a dildo factory, and naturally, there was some very bawdy humour among the girls on the production line due to the nature of their work. Each member of staff was issued with a phallus-shaped ‘clock card’ which was

      Joshua Mohr: The Time I Robbed a Liquor Store

      Mar 10, 2017

      Our alibi was a sandy blanket in the back of my truck, an acoustic guitar, a knockout brunette in the passenger seat. Our alibi was a night picnic at the beach. When we got pulled over—if we got pulled over—the cop would peer in the cab and he’d thin

      I magine a sticky, early August morning, around three o’clock. It is dark, the moon blocked by clouds, no streetlights, a siren in the distance, medics running to a heart attack. Imagine a man out on a bike or walking a sick dog, or maybe a woman who
