LIFE IS A JOURNEY... RIGHT INTO THE ABYSS. Exactly what goes through a man's head when good fortune buries him in an avalanche of life changing events? The Cliché explains all with a scathing and comical look at divorce, infidelity, bankruptcy and marijuana farming. Each short story catapults our Hero from one inferno to another - cumulatively revealing an ever more horrific picture of one man's emotional turmoil in his quest to find love and personal redemption. Told from a decidedly male point of view, The Cliché is the story of a flawed yet relentlessly optimistic Hero coming to terms with life after his wife leaves him for their Pool Guy. In addition to the vast complications of his divorce, our Hero must deal with the ongoing challenges of: - Falling in love with his Future Ex's best friend. - An ill-fated decision to grow 200 marijuana plants in his garage. - Raising three children as a single parent (who happens to grow pot). - Accepting personal accountability for his lot in life. Will our Hero enjoy the ultimate cliché and live, Happily ever after? Don't count on it.
