Last Class
What do a gay teenager whose first name is Last, a future sorority queen who calls her horse Pierce Chad Stonington III, a virgin-until-marriage pledge group, a pirate radio station, a wacko fundamentalist Christian terrorist organization, and the National Guard have in common? The answer A fun and zany look at small town life, authority run amok, and teenage rebellion.
Last Class is a comedic novel about a small town in the throes of a modern-day sexual revolution. In this madcap hormonal romp, a shy high school student, Last Mundy, launches a multimedia protest against narrow-minded teachers, his tranquilized monkey classmates, and a totalitarian high school principal. Heidi Malone, a local herbal supplements seller, joins the protest to raise awareness of her impending court trial—all on account of a trumped-up obscenity charge leveled at her car’s hood ornament. The protest snowballs into a full-fledged rebellion that spreads throughout the town and captures the attention of the nation’s media, rocketing the town’s tiny population from obscurity into the bizarre glare of unwanted stardom.

About the author
Emkay Scott
2 books1 followerI am a first-time author who recently self-published my e-novel, Last Class. It is available at amazon.com and smashwords.com. I live in Toronto and am at work writing another novel. My interests and preoccupations include LGBT news and progress, reading about other cultures, language learning, and photography and photojournalism. I am a bit of a news addict and read foreign newspapers (in English!) just to see what's going on in the world.
Even though my writing is contemporary satire, I love reading literary crime and spy novels by authors like Charles Cumming, Leighton Gage, John Burdett, Robert Wilson, and so on. Every now and then a brilliant, literary novel, like Abraham Verghese's Cutting for Stone, bowls me over.
Really funny Canadian comedic fiction that I admire includes Allan Stratton's The Phoenix Lottery and Will Ferguson's Happiness.
