Trust is committing suicide-love is abused, and institutions and individuals are corrupt, corrupted, or corruptible. The City and country are disintegrating. Enter two of the unlikeliest characters you've ever met-think Charlie Brown meets Mr. Natural, or Alfred E. Neuman in The Heart of Darkness. All these guys want to do is survive, and they do-but in a way neither they nor you can imagine.The Night at the End of the Tunnel, or Isaiah Can You See? is a dystopian picaresque.
