About Jude Deluca’s “The Last Straw”
This story is inspired by Hans Trapp, the Christmas cannibal scarecrow. The idea of setting it in a supermarket was inspired from the days my mom used to work as a cashier in Pathmark. When I was in high school she'd let me hang out with her during late evenings, but that was during summer vacation. I once made 200 dollars from tips by bagging for people.
