Within a Diminishing Caricature

An increasingly human gust of wind, sixty-five vignettes, and an LSD-influenced suicide note only scratch the surface of the forces that reveal the cause of a young man’s suicide. Over the course of three years – drifting across New York, Boston, and the dreamscape of a feral imagination – ‘He’ pursues psychology at eighteen, writing at nineteen, and then nothingness at twenty. An ‘uncoming of age’ story, a necrography, and a psycho-social adventure exploring why we do the strange things we do, WITHIN A DIMINISHING CARICATURE is both a melancholy defeat and a quiet celebration of the vast intricacy of life.
