Publisher's Synopsis

A gifted toddler leads friends on a lifelong search for something wondrous, reportedly around the corner or across the track as reported by Miss. Ma'am, a blind proselytizer whose avocation is prostitution. During his search, the sojourner pays savory sandwiches for directions always inaccurate. Thus, his moniker, The Sandwich Man. Meanwhile, an undercurrent of violence, abuse, and other injustices transpire at a brothel, church, barbershop, and other landmarks he encounters - all with identical furnishings. After decades of dead end trails, a devastating storm destroys the aging traveler's neighborhood producing gentrification and a fresh supply of false leads. Eventually alone and greybeard, a final idea fails yet reveals success. Told from The Sandwich Man's distorted perception often with misleading syntax, this epic postmodern saga is a poetic beast daring readers to chase evasive clues, discover the traveler's location and decipher his true destination.
