ROUGH PEARL GN (C: 1-1-2) (W) Kevin Mutch Adam Kline is stuck in a university job, surrounded by academic boors and completely ignored by the New York art scene. Miraculously, a promotion appears and a high-end art dealer expresses interest in his work. However, he keeps blacking out at the most inopportune times and his perception of reality and fantasy begins to blur….This wryly funny tale is further enlivened, as Adam contends with an eerie, pitch-black void, flesh-eating zombies, and a network of bug-eyed aliens. As if getting by in NYC wasn't hard enough! JAN201771 9781683962847
