A Fish Made of Water follows Johan, an abused child and suicidal heroin addict born and raised in Amsterdam, from the black hole of addiction to the edge of enlightenment with the help of Daenko, an eccentric Physicist living in an abandoned bakery. Daenko's mysterious poems and unusual explanations of the cosmos and evolution, awaken in Johan a new appreciation for life. Guided by Daenko's stories, in particular one in which Lao Tzu and Albert Einstein share a meal, and several revealing dreams, Johan's childhood quest for the Holy Grail is revived. When Daenko's true identity is finally revealed, the story turns on its head, exposing not only the real Daenko, but also the real Johan. It is at this point that Johan's quest for the Holy Grail takes a different turn, and is satisfied in a surprising turn of events. A Fish Made of Water is part autobiography, part fiction. Johan's experience of the unseen world, however, is real.
