Inventories is a surreal, genre-bending odyssey through the red dust of business, minor gods, and the ultimate search for simplicity. Glaucus is a mistake of the gods. Part human, part something else, he has the rare ability to change his size at will, though the cost of energy is high and the results are often random. Working as an in-house Risk Manager for an elite brokerage specializing in extreme and unusual risks, Glaucus finds himself gobsmacked when a massive $300 million transaction is hacked and vanishes into cyberspace.
From the rain slicked streets of Seattle to the sun drenched vine country of California, Inventories follows Glaucus on a picaresque journey to recover the missing file. Along the way, he encounters a cast of eccentric characters. Written in 81 episodes, Inventories is a philosophical exploration of agency versus accident, the absurdity of modern commerce, and the inventories we take of our own lives when we finally decide to walk away from it all.
