Every week we pile our garbage on the curb and it disappears—like magic! The reality is anything but, of course. Trashed, Derf Backderf’s follow-up to the critically acclaimed, award-winning international bestseller My Friend Dahmer, is an ode to the crap job of all crap jobs—garbage collector. Anyone who has ever been trapped in a soul-sucking gig will relate to this tale. Trashed follows the raucous escapades of three 20-something friends as they clean the streets of pile after pile of stinking garbage, while battling annoying small-town bureaucrats, bizarre townfolk, sweltering summer heat, and frigid winter storms. Trashed is fiction, but is inspired by Derf’s own experiences as a garbageman. Interspersed are nonfiction pages that detail what our garbage is and where it goes. The answers will stun you. Hop on the garbage truck named Betty and ride along with Derf on a journey into the vast, secret world of garbage. Trashed is a hilarious, stomach-churning tale that will leave you laughing and wincing in disbelief. Find teaching guides for Trashed and other titles at abramsbooks.com/resources.

Review “A downbeat but entertaining ode to the odiferous realities of getting by.” (Publishers Weekly (starred review))“Backderf’s (My Friend Dahmer) detailed and grimy art is perfect for this raucous piece of infotainment about the crappiest of necessary crap jobs.” (Library Journal)“More than anything else, the book is funny, very funny. At times, it’s a laugh-out-loud kind of funny rarely found in graphic novels. It might even make you think.” (The Cleveland Plain Dealer online)“The microcosm of Backderf’s humor-rich, coming-of-age story expands toward larger social and cultural themes, including the idea that ‘we all contribute to the staggering, never-ending accumulation of waste on this planet.’” (Shelf Awareness (starred review))“Intriguing, hilarious, and stinky.” (Entertainment Weekly)“It’s all far more entertaining than it sounds, thanks to the likeability of J.B. and his at-loose-ends roommates . . . and Derf’s slightly off-kilter, pleasantly ungainly drawings.” (Booklist)“Trashed is both entertaining and unnerving.” (The A.V. Club)“Fun, funny, gross and engrossing.” (The New York Journal of Books)

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. A great book about a crap job By Vern Morrison John Backderf's previous graphic novel "My Friend Dahmer" was an international bestseller. If there's any justice in the world,"Trashed" will become one, too. A reworking and expansion of stories Derf first told as a webcomic, "Trashed" tells the story of a young man who takes on "the crap job of all crap jobs," working as a trash collector on a sanitation crew.If you've ever had to work a job where you had to take at least three showers when you got home to even BEGIN to get the stench off you, or even if you've just had one where you had to deal with a knuckleheaded work force and a pain-in-the-ass boss, you wll relate to this story. Derf's drawing technique gets better each time out, and his ability to tell an interesting story is as good as his work with his pencils and pens. "Trashed" is based on Derf's real-life experience. Although it's a novel, it feels real because it IS real.Buy a copy for yourself, and while you're at it, get one for that teenager or young adult who sits by themself in the corner at family gatherings because they think nobody understands them. They'll be glad you did.
4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. This is well worth your time and coin By 20910 The author's razor-sharp wit is in fine form in this 'memoir' of his work as a garbage collector in Northern Ohio. The story blends his sardonic humor with a dizzying and dismaying amount of facts describing the carelessness with which we treat our planet. Impressive enough as a traditional narrative, the author's art (complete with unusual perspectives, whimsical details and incredible coloring) makes the story like a treasure hunt. Will be my go-to holiday gift for friends.
