Glory hole

About this book

It's about the ravages of time, about AIDS and meth and porn, it's about life during the "war on terror" and fake biographies, kidnapped children and schoolhouse shootings, San Francisco, street outreach, the study of Arabic verb forms, the study of transgender Polish modernists, obsession, future life forms, Amish children and wayward Mormons, getting lost in the woods, prison as both metaphor and reality, a doomed romantic attitude toward literature and writing. And what more? Evil clowns? Iceland? Madness? Mystical texts? It also serves as commentary on and a version of the I Ching, meaning you can use it as an oracle.
