About this product
Product Information
An offbeat and satirical work of what might be considered literary fiction, The Chronicles of a Cynic is a loosely allegorical spin on Dante's Purgatorio . This contemporary bildungsroman follows the unlikely path of the title character-a writer/educator named Dan Taylor-Gehry-across the country to teaching jobs, through loves gained and lost, against encounters with the seven deadly sins, amidst moderate success in writing and publishing, and ultimately downward through his darkest psychological recesses. The cynic's frenetic pace matches the transience of Kerouac's Sal Paradise, and the bombastic tone of his narration evokes visions of Ignatius Reilly waxing philosophical from behind a hot dog stand. With his cynicism rooted in his desire for cultural purity, Taylor-Gehry takes his idealism too far by resorting to ridiculous acts of violence against others and himself. During his incarceration, he is forced to prove his sanity by charting his life story, resulting in this darkly comic novel of ideas.

I ordered over a half dozen of books from this seller and all were packed with amazing care - each wrapped in protective insulated envelopes and all sent well-cushioned in an oversized, sturdy box. The books were in better than described condition. I would recommend this seller as one of the best from whom I've ever ordered on eBay. But that's not all... as a gift for my large order, a free book was included. And it was a beautiful book!! Thank you and nice work!
