Coyote Gray III has a Communications degree, a philosophy minor, a job at a company whose function nobody in the building can describe, and eleven dollars and fifty-seven cents a day. He is twenty-three. He has just chosen a dental plan on the advice of a man with a plain coffee mug, signed an eleven page lease on an apartment with granite countertops he cannot afford, and discovered that a salary and a paycheck are two different numbers separated by everything the world takes before you see it. Over one year in Albuquerque he learns the grocery store at 9 PM, the read receipt at 1 AM, the meeting that aligns nothing, the landlord who texts in koans, the friend who stops answering, and the beans that will not come out right. The Dispersal is a comedy about the first year of adulthood, told by a young man who was trained to analyze every message and is discovering that people are not messages, and that the distance between a ranch sixty miles south and a one bedroom on the northeast heights is not measured in miles.
