The year is 1961, and college life is brimming with wild, new, and unexpected experiences-particularly for someone as introverted and painfully shy as Harvey, a good southern boy who has just embarked on his freshman year at Zebulon Kincaid State College.

But after a brutal fraternity hazing ritual leaves him humiliated, he winds up transferring to North Texas State University in Denton, living in a two-story rooming house known as Crud Hall, where he'll spend the next three years.

It is at this residence that Harvey meets the wonderfully weird cast of characters who become his closest college companions-a collection of personalities that includes Chinko the Chinese psych major, thirty-eight-year-old blind diabetic Caleb, and an effeminate aspiring poet named Wally, to name a few.

Crud Hall is the hilarious, tongue-in-cheek, partially autobiographical look at a group of boys and men trying to navigate their way through the experimental world of college in the early 1960s. Written with a special flair for strange and memorable details-from a main character's "initiation" at a Mexican brothel to a bodybuilder afraid of rabbits-this unique novel is a fresh look at an exciting time.

Jago Muir is a graduate of the University of North Texas, where he earned a bachelor's degree in English in the 1960s. He later worked toward his master's degree at Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas. His study of linguistics and the English language earned him a place as a scholarly writer, publishing his work in the Lamar Journal of the Humanities.

Muir is a lover of diversity with an extremely low threshold for boredom. He is a teacher, poet, musical composer, and singer. Along with his variety of interests, he plays folk guitar and bluegrass banjo, and regularly performs karaoke. He is also a private pilot, an amateur magician, and a fluent speaker of French and Mandarin.

Muir currently lives in Liuzhou, China, where he teaches English as a foreign language. His wife, Xue Qing Wen, teaches philosophy and English at Laibin Vocational College.
