A lonely junkmailer, his bag full of real estate leaflets, wanders the streets of a sleeping subtropical city. With adventure in his heart, his search for letterboxes takes on epic proportions throughout the night as dream and reality collide. Accompanied by a host of bizarre companions—a girl who has forgotten how to cry, a Polish-Aboriginal clairvoyant, a mysterious ringmaster, and a tribe of watchful white tigers—the junkmailer is led on a quixotic journey through the nighttime streets of a city desperately in need of redemption. Assured, whimsical, and alive with unforgettable characters, this book examines the condition of the outsider.
