Delicious Foods by James Hannaham

I enjoyed this book, however, it is a very sad, disturbing tale told from the viewpoint of crack, known as "Scotty" in the novel.  It opens with a young black 17 year old, driving for his life, with both of his hands having just been cut off.  Throughout the book, the reader discovers what happened to the young man's mother, driving her to a crack addition, and ultimately involving her son in her life with her employer, Delicious Foods. 
A very well written, thought provoking novel.
