Described by Variety as Yukon Gothic,’ Claudia Dey’s acclaimed play Trout Stanley is set in northern British Columbia, on the outskirts of a mining town between Misery Junction and Grizzly Alley. In this inhospitable setting live a pair of sisters, twins who are not identical in any way: Sugar, a complicated, insecure waif who still wears the tracksuit her mother died in ten years prior, and Grace, a rough-and-tumble hellcat who owns the local dump. At the play’s opening, it is their thirtieth birthday, and the TV news has announced the disappearance of a local Scrabble-champ stripper. While Grace is at the dump, housebound Sugar is surprised by a mysterious drifter, one Trout Stanley, foot fetishist and fake cop, who is searching for the lake where his parents drowned a fishy story if there ever was one. He quickly becomes mired in a surreal love triangle with the two sisters. Trout Stanley is about three people who confuse codependence for co-operation and affliction for affection. An eccentric, captivating story in which the biggest catch of all is love. Lavishly illustrated by Jason Logan.

Listen. We know you're getting lucky. This is about getting luckier—getting more. Lots more. More making out. More lip service to your man parts. More ohmygodImgonnacome. More. How? Tucked between these covers are the secrets of babes brought to you by a babe herself. Imagine it. You are only pages away from having your name scrawled in lipstick across bathroom mirrors. From catching her friends staring reverently at you. From becoming the man Hef calls for advice. It’s simple. Remember that time when you were doing that thing and she said, "Do that thing again" and you said, "Let's take it to eleven"? Instructions enclosed. Or that time you thought to yourself, "What is she thinking?" Answered. And the g-spot? Chapter 14. Your million-dollar point? Revealed. And, most importantly, what the babe on the other end of the couch or the bar really wants? Declassified. Finally. So, what's it gonna be? Robin or Batman? Gilligan or The Professor? Man or legend? Choose legend. Get luckier. Be a Bush Pilot.

How to Be a Bush Pilot is boot camp for the modern playboy and sexual adventurer, a master class in becoming the lover that every woman wants but doesn’t know how to ask for. It is funny. It is instructive. It winks and flirts. Its unwavering purpose: getting laid. Proficiently. Ranging from remedial education to moves that will educate even the savviest Wilt Chamberlain, Claudia Dey uses female insight to turn mere men into that elusive master of the bedroom: the Bush Pilot. How to Be a Bush Pilot is studded with pop culture references, swinging between high and low art but always focusing on the art of seduction. Think Led Zeppelin meets Ted Hughes meets wood panelling meets Henry Miller meets Def Leppard. In the bedroom. With a tone that reads like Tina Fey channelling Dr. Ruth, Dey ranges from the pre-game warm-ups of flirtation and fantasy, to charming the go-go, to graduating from the regulars to the remote. How to Be a Bush Pilot is fearless, playful, always commanding yet never intimidating—the essential guide for every man who wants to be a legend and wants to laugh while trying.
