From the page: “Vincent Spinetti is an archetypical tortured artist. Throughout this sad comic novel, the sensitive young writer falls victim to alienation, parental neglect,poverty, depression, alcoholism, illness, nervous breakdowns, and various forms of unrequited love. What Vincent is painfully unaware of is that these torments are largely due to the secret manipulations of New Renaissance, an experimental entertainment organization that is testing the age-old idea of art coming from suffering.”
