A man called Oxymoron, not born but made, seeks his identity throughout the two years of his whole life. Did he succeed?
A man called Oxymoron is constructed, not in a lab but in a surgical theatre. No sooner does he wake up from anesthesia than he finds himself on the journey to discovering who he is. Not before long, he runs into his own dead body. He has three wives but is husband to none, two children but father of none. Though people from all walks are eager to meet with him, none is interested in knowing him. Does he belong to no one and nothing? From being an involved scientist, in frustration, he moves on to being an aloof farmer. One nice evening on his farm, he comes to know 'who he is'; in fact, he also finds 'why he is'. But then, in the time he has got in hand, it is already too late.
