Weeping Willow

Imagine a staid accountant from Chicago with a beige life forced to live in the attic of a diner owned by a man with questionable hygiene who has a prom carnation (and possibly Walt Disney) in his freezer, then reluctantly falling in with the local theater group (at least one of whom would spell it "theatre") after his wife falls for another man and empties his bank account. Follow Lee Harris, who desperately tries to make sense of a new life that seems perversely committed to thwarting his efforts. You'll also follow the "writers", Geoff (the man with the world's largest head) and Steve (who thinks Othello is a board game), who banter, argue and comment throughout the narrative.
