Description: Meet the beautiful octoroon child-woman on the auction block, the infamous outlaw in love with her, a young Kipling in America on a secret mission, and the perfectly dead Dumaine family, all living in a luxurious brothel on a hill in New Orleans that doesn't exist. Then take a ride with Tolstoy, Gauguin, and a Russian circus giant, members of the New James Gang, as they rob the Bank of New Orleans with a magical brush stroke. Invigorating ski jaunts down the ice mountains of Pluto, torrid love sessions under Big Ben, and a supernatural electrical storm that disrupts the Octoroon Ball are just a few of the defining moments necessary for these people to come in touch with the bookmarks of their souls, and the strangely simple meaning of life itself.
