Three shots ring out on a cold Manhattan night. Minutes later Shem, a young Irishman, lies strapped to an ambulance trolley, his laptop by his side. Badumphff! Thanks to a pothole en route to the hospital the ambulance doors fly open and Shem and his trolley are catapulted out onto Fifth Avenue. Thus begins an epic trip through the streets of New York to riddle the meaning of life. This novel was written 25 years ago. It was considered absurd, crazy, surreal and a bit ahead of its time. So, after 25 years it made perfect sense to bring it back to a world that is absurd, crazy and surreal.
