Slo Learner

by Stephen Francis

Slo Learner is Stephen Francis's debut book of humorous short stories that follow his travels and misadventures across the globe. Ever the raconteur, Stephen guides the reader down a trail of short stories including car thieves, perverts hiding in outhouses, and how to name your penis after a historical figure - stories that are often to the embarrassment of Stephen himself.

Stephen's writing style is authentic and often explicit. His collection of stories is bizarre, disturbing, and, most importantly, hilarious.
