Here's the set-up:


Are you prepared for what comes next?


Accustomed to a life of cosseted seclusion at home with his parents, Valentine is suddenly faced with making his own way in the world. His new life is quickly upended, however, when he's mugged at gunpoint. Finding shelter at a mysterious inn run by the dour Mrs. Anna, he soon encounters a Bosnian woman with a hole where her stomach used to be, an American entrepreneur with a scheme to implant televisions into people's foreheads, and a Catholic priest who attempts to lure him down inside a kitchen sink. Then things start getting strange...


In this story based loosely around the state of Bardo from The Tibetan Book of the Dead - an intermediate state where the dead arrive prior to rebirth - dying is the easy part. Getting out of Bardo and returning to the land of the living is a far more perilous proposition, and unless you know what you're doing...you might never leave. 


An odd, yet oddly touching tale of life, death, and the space in-between.


From the reviewers:


"The End of the World is very much Alice in Wonderland meets Beetlejuice."  "Humorous, deceptively light and drier than dust."  "Jerky for the mind."  --The Compulsive Reader


"A surreal, clever literary novella."  "Weird, funny and philosophical - recommended."  
--Helen Smith, author of Alison Wonderland, The Miracle Inspector, Being Light


Eccentric, surreal, and heart-warming.  If you can imagine your literary sensibility having feet, with one foot planted in surrealism and the other in existentialism, this book will tickle your toes in a singular fashion with its extravagantly eccentric banter. The story races along at a cracking pace, with barely a pause to draw breath.  -  P.J. Salisbury


Fun and quirky.  This is kind of a bizarre little novel, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's kind of hard to tell what's going on (though I had my suspicions), but it is not unpleasant. It's a fun quick read, and very well written.  -   Khrystine D. Kelsey
