Infinite Opposites: Devon Macy and the Flavor of Life - Timothy Lamkins - Bog

The meaning of life. The secret of the universe. The horrifying truth about cream cheese. Could one clown hold the answers? Devon Macy is a disgruntled engineer in search of a new job, a new love, and a memory he lost as the result of a tragic grocery cart accident. Plagued by hypochondria, hilariously disproportionate bad luck, and a flamboyant apparition claiming to be his guardian angel, Devon haphazardly navigates his life from childhood in rural Arkansas to miserable adulthood in corporate America. Haunted by the inexplicable at his new company: a laughing elevator, an exploding cubicle and the disappearance of an entire engineering group, Devon goes in search of answers. Unwittingly he unearths the true nature of the universe and the meaning of life itself, neither of which can compare to the enormity of his final realization. Follow Devon in the surreal journey that takes him from the growing pains of innocence to the brink of self-awareness - a journey so bizarre it may never be fully understood.
