Overview
Overview
In this unusual fantasy, Collin O'Daurc, a twenty-something
hairstylist with too many girlfriends, suffers a stroke on the job
and is promptly swept off to an island-hopping dream-existence
that he can never quite figure out. He lands in the lap of long-
dead Impressionist painter Paolo Gauguin and his never-born
daughter, Juane, and is whisked off to jungle adventures with
the likes of Lorén, a Māori cliff diver/inventor, Balthazar, a
hair-covered librarian, Eugene, a Klondike-era tracker/physician, and Tully, a baboon-like monkey the size of a bus.
Not to mention scores of monsters, cannibals, storms, and the
T-Wreckx, a seagoing hostel and twin of the infamous Titanic.
Never one to last long in relationships of any sort, Collin finds
himself living alongside people whose legendary personality
quirks force him to take a close look at his own, and lead him
to wonder if he's simply in the throes of karma, or has crossed
paths with others from different times simply because they're
the only ones who can help him...or vice-versa.
Will he ever regain consciousness? And if so, in what dimension and reality? These are the questions dictating Collin's
search for answers, which finally come in a form that may cost
him the life of a sparring-partner he's come to love, if not actually admire. And in order to earn a return to a "normal" existence, he must deal with and conquer the monsters that lurk in
his own subconsciousness, the "killjoys" and seducers who seek
to destroy us all.
