Publisher's Synopsis
Dwayne Fuller is an aspiring comedian who gets up on the comedy stage night after night determined to make the audience laugh - whether they want to or not. He lives off pizza in his mother's basement with the door bolted and the phone off the hook. His father, Monaghan, has been gone for four years. Dwayne knows that this is no life for a grown man, but, driven by a need to escape his mother's claustrophobic clutches and to prove to his estranged father that he has succeeded, he becomes convinced that his only ticket out of his dreadful life is a chance to headline at the hottest comedy club in town.
From smoky, vicious comedy clubs to the frozen streets of east-end Toronto , The Hindmost traces the unexpected and bittersweet reconciliation of a tragic comic and his barfly dad.
