A young poet travels to a mysterious country named SALMON to escape "the dailiness of life" but his plan is thwarted by derelict trains, ambivalent pirates, and a deity-like mushroom that seems to disappear the world one object at a time.Sebastian Castillo's madcap, surreal novella, SALMON is a modern picaresque for the back pocket.Praise for Sebastian Castillo"Broken-down time machine-esque. Feels like it was written any time in the past or future 100 years."- Mark Leidner"Sebastian Castillo's writing is surprising, charming and formally innovative."- Chelsea Hodson"Peculiar... ambitious... a compelling voice"- Ottessa Moshfegh"He makes literature seem a sustainable and attainable practice, as marvelous as basic grammar or tap water."- Wayne Koestenbaum"Sebastian Castillo invokes a logical illogic wherein nothing is untrue or impossible, secrets have secrets, and any sentence can change the world."-Blake Butler

In this endearing hybrid work, we are brought into the mind of "Sebastian," who narrates Not I through a series of seemingly disparate thoughts, dreams, regrets, and memories. As the book progresses, a strange, funny, and moving portrait of a life comes into focus-a singular glimpse into the mind of an artist in the world.
