A struggling rock 'n' roll singer, a funeral director with an irrepressible flair for comedy, a hermaphroditic flower vendor, and a dead genius become drawn into an other-worldly search for a lost book reputed to contain the secret of predicting all the futures of the world. An eclectic blend of the mystical, the pseudoscientific, and the manic, this fast-paced fantasy by the author of The Crystal Memory is highly recommended.
