The Yellow Pinto straddles the line between memoir/narrative and transgressive fiction by
combining themes of identity, addiction, and complicated familial relationships.
Written in a unique, unconventional, pulse raising style, B. WalterWill uses essay and
storytelling in an inventive fashion. He intertwines stories within stories to detail his personal
struggle with gambling addiction - a hidden addiction not well understood. B. WalterWill
explores how this addiction has impacted his life, his relationships, his sexual explorations, and
perhaps most importantly, the relationship with his father who passed away after a prolonged
battle with Alzheimer's.
Enthusiasts of Martin Amis, Hunter S. Thompson, Jeanette Walls, Nick Hornby, and fans of the
hit show, Shameless, created by Paul Abbott will be drawn to the unapologetic writing, the dirty
realism, and the complex relationships of this book.
