Publisher's Synopsis

In this groundbreaking, genre-defying book, three narrators - a sage, a vagabond and a young boy - journey through an internal landscape of philosophical reflection, banal observation and absurdity wisdom, of mundanity and madness, of prose, free verse and rhyme. Disoriented by the confusion and discontinuity of the text, the reader is free to manipulate its fragments at will, to reconstruct a whole from its parts, and in doing so to accompany its three narrators on their quest.
