A surreal, time-bending odyssey. A freak show owner sends Reuben Hecht-who has been stuck at age 17 for twenty years- and Edwina-who can switch age at will-to a mysterious Colony to recover androids that have been reported there. Stuck in a house that is not his home, Ruben is beaten by his mother for procrastinating on his homework for the Holy German Paintbrush Distance Learning Academy; his father has taken to his bed to hatch a dwarf. He goes to a concert by the rock group, 'The Flesh-eating Fetish Bitches', and decides to run away, pursued by the parish priest who wants to put him in a children's home, since he will never come of age. AUTHOR: Eugen Egner (born 1951) has found fame in Germany as both a writer and a graphic artist, especially for his cartoons and illustrations. He has written radio plays, short stories and novels including:Cosmic Flip, From the Diary of an Alcoholic, When Father Christmas was Mother Christmas, The Diaries of WA Mozart and The Artificial Man.
