The Falling Off Place is a humorous look at what part chance and fate play in life. As the story unfolds, a disparate group of characters sets out, each member on a vital quest.
*Chauncy Rutherford, eccentric millionaire maker of canine contraceptives, seeks asylum;
*Gogee Yackamoto, World War II Japanese soldier, stranded on the remote Pacific island of Karamabang, seeks relief;
*Terri Lee Buns, erstwhile cub reporter seeks Chauncy Rutherford;
Eddie Dyslinski, overweight weather balloon manufacturer seeks his brother's killer;
*Bruce Beauchamp, deranged nozzle genius seeks revenge; and then there are the snake woman who seeks her next meal and the wondrous karamas, birds native to Karamabang, who seek the Great Karama.
Follow their journeys as they glide about The Falling Off Place, each locked in a personal mission, yet all inextricably linked to one another's fate. |
