Once there was a town that lived in the dream of the brother of Maggie Brood. Thus begins The Brother of Maggie Brood, a surreal black comedy set in the imagination of an unhinged mind. The citizens of Our Dream, a town that lives entirely within the dreamscapes of a disturbed young man, face a threat to their very existence when a shady real estate corporation and its monstrous enforcers arrive to clean things up. The developers' quarry is the titular dreamer himself, the god-author of this world. As the hunt for him grows desperate and violent, the dream's architecture becomes increasingly unstable, unpredictable, and outlandish. When the dreamer goes missing in his own creation, a family of misfits must band together, defend their home from the encroaching horrors of gentrification, and solve the mystery on everybody's mind: where is the brother of Maggie Brood, and what will happen when he finally wakes up? With its thorny moral questions, provocative ambiguities, and caustic bite, The Brother of Maggie Brood will appeal to lovers of dark, mind-bending, absurdist satire.
