The Club

About the Book

Four friends are engaged in adventures that parody science, politics, society and current events. These wandering youth ride a rocket ship to Pluto, the final exodus of mankind, become involved with an ant society that ridicules the lumpen proleterial, and Cretaceous dinosaur races that deride presidential races. A gargantuan pre-historic bird crashes into a government complex onto the horrendous 9/11 incident. A visit to a state hospital pokes fun at the mentally ill in an enduring way. Giant lice are plaguing mankind as the AIDS epidemic vitiates the globe. Extraterrestrial life frequents the planet, a futuristic inevitability.
