Synopsis
Even in 1980s San Francisco, the five corners where art, law, sex, medicine, and madness meet is no place to live. This black comedy, written while the Go-Go Decade approached the peak of its collective consumerist psychosis, has finally escaped out into unsuspecting bookstores. Features nineteen illustrated interpretations of the story’s twisting, twisted, and kaleidoscopic narrative shifts, as drawn by five generations of superb cartoonists.
