>it's another metaphorical fiction novel about a struggling, potentially alcoholic, writer (the author's self-insert) who randomly starts to receive visions as he goes about his day, which prompts him to embark on a dazzling™ adventure across space and time to show you how much the author knows about human history, and deliver an ultimately humanitarian message.
