A Spoonful of Butt Cheek
The Penis and the Pendulum
After Hack wrote his Edgar Allan Poe rip-off The Tell-Tale Butt, his friend Dave Ritterband mocked “Wow! This one was even better than The Penis and the Pendulum!” Hack was outraged at the slight so he wrote a book with the title to put Ritterband in his place. But his friend was right, The Tell-Tale Butt was much better.

Since his series of Shakespearean adaptations was such a surprising success, Hack couldn’t rest until he did the final major tragedy, Othello. It’s honestly far from my favorite play but Boris thought this novelization represented Hack’s best work.
