“Trash and Other Litter” is a very interesting read. The author provides humor and insight into the world of those we think less of—strippers and escorts and their seedy lives. The story revolves around Rufus, the bouncer, and five ladies of a gentlemen’s club--Roxy, Marina, Sheryl, Lacy and Robbie.

Rufus is having a birthday, and while he doesn’t really celebrate it, the ladies he protects invite him out for a night of fun--drinks, dinner and some drugs. How does he end up in a dumpster or near one? How did these women become part of this new and strange adventure? Each lady tells her story of how she got to where she is and what they want to do with their life.

The other parts of this book are the author’s writings that include a sci-fi theme, and being a private detective who’s looking for someone, but not sure who. I’m not a big fan of sci-fi; however, I did find the reading to be interesting while somewhat confusing.

The final section of “Trash and Other Litter” by Richard Bellush, Jr. includes the author’s random musings about topics he finds interesting. The entire book was a very good read that held my interest.
