SynopsisAn old lady and a young man meet on a crosswalk in Manhattan in bizarre circumstances which drastically change the directions of their lives. A foul-mouthed youth is killed in a traffic accident. The old lady's apartment is visited by folks that would make most people run to their psychologist. A mass murderer explains why he thinks he is a good man. A cool Jesus seems to agree with him and asks for The Bible to be rewritten: make the book a bit more interesting, inject a bit of humour and give me a girlfriend. Attempts are made to rewrite literary history: Hemingway's Santiago wants to return with the marlin intact; Jay Gatsby doesn't want to end up dead in a swimming pool. It takes a while for the police to get involved, but when it finally happens, the outcome is one that nobody could have predicted., A stunningly thought-provoking NOVEL FOR READERS who enjoy literary fiction, imaginative unpredictability, bizarre mystery and cool, logical philosophical reasoning. , An old lady and a young man meet on a crosswalk in Manhattan in bizarre circumstances which drastically change the directions of their lives.
