Sinopse
Características

Told over the course of a few days, it is a young mans plight against the mediocrity, crippling monotony, and apathy of modern society. Recognising he is part of a cultural lost generation, he at last loses his grip on the meaningless and empty. While standing on the precipice of what he sees as humanitys next great overcoming, and unwillingly embracing the nihilism of his predicament, a series of events and chance meetings cast him on a brief, life-affirming journey into the depths of his unconscious that changes everything.The prose of Turgenev, Hemingway, Hesse, Bukowski are prominent throughout, as well as the philosophical influences of Nietzsche and Sartre, and the spiritual humanism of Alan Watts.A contemporary critique of modern society that is undeniably confronting, frank, but beautifully finished. A must read if youve ever questioned the hollow call to fulfil your banal social destiny.
