The Thrillville Pulp Fiction Collection is a series of "double features" reprinting the best work of underground literary legend Will Viharo in definitive editions. Volume Three: Chumpy Walnut and Selected Short Stories provides a revealing, entertaining look at the author's seminal works while creatively chronicling his artistic evolution, his very first novel being a unique, charming, nostalgic fable suitable for all ages, the remaining assortment of tales wildly ranging in tone and content from bleak to bizarre, from whimsical to wanton, but always stubbornly original. "(Chumpy Walnut) is my favorite tome in the Viharo oeuvre. Anyone can relate, 'cause we've all got a little Chumpy in all of us." -Eddie Muller, Czar of Noir, author of Dark City: The Lost World of Film Noir, The Art of Noir, and The Distance
