Publisher's Synopsis
Farley Underwood is a man lost in his own mind, struggling to make sense of the world around him. His thoughts are a chaotic jumble of mismatched ideas and nonsensical notions, leaving him feeling disconnected from those around him. No one seems to understand him, and he cannot quite grasp the workings of the universe. In his confusion, Farley longs for a simpler world, one where the boundaries between what is and what isn't are clear and unambiguous. He imagines a place where the janitors scour the garbage cans for quarters, and where the rules of reality remain fixed and unchanging. Alas, this is not the world he inhabits. Reality is a fluid and ever-changing thing, shifting and morphing with each passing moment. Despite this, Farley refuses to give up his quest for understanding. He realizes that his desires may be absurd, but in a world where everything is nonsensical, what is the value of sense anyway? Perhaps the key to understanding lies not in logic or reason, but in embracing the absurdity of it all. As he wanders through life, Farley remains a perplexed and befuddled figure, searching for meaning in the chaos that surrounds him. He remains open to the possibility of finding something unexpected along the way, whether it be a pile of quarters in the trash or a castle that remains an is instead of an isn't. In a world where absurdity reigns supreme, anything is possible.
