The Metaphysical Touch
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Farrar Straus Giroux
- Publish date: 01/01/2006
Description:
In 1991 Emily Piper, a graduate student at Berkeley, has nearly finished her dissertation in metaphysics when her life is changed by the great Berkeley-Oakland fire that destroyed over 3,000 homes. Pi loses all of her belongings: her books and writings, art the things that reminded her of herself. Though others throw themselves into the task of rebuilding their lives, Pi can't. Instead, she escapes to the small coastal town of Mendocino.
Expand description
On the other coast is J. D., a man with an ambition to go: permanently, absolutely. But before making his departure, J. D. decides to write a record of his jokes and neuroses; of his reflections on his wandering father, Joe; and of his urban, unemployed despair -- and post it on the Internet.
