Description
The abyss. It looks, well, sort of abysmal at first glance.
But in Citrus Production Notes, B.T. Raven, takes you right to the edge of the abyss to cheerily point out its great potential.
For instance, it has unlimited room for expansion and many shadowy nooks and crannies for personal storage of emotional baggage. It comes with a free skeleton in every closet.
In the end, of course, the choice is yours. "Free will," says B.T., who then encourages you to act quickly. "These abysses are selling like hotcakes," he says, "And they're not making them anymore."
Citrus Production Notes begins its narrative in Los Angeles, 1969. The Storm of the Century has flushed the dead, and many bad things from the canyons. L.A. is many things to many people but amphibious is not one of them.
One must recall that there were no Google maps, or cell phones or personal computers in 1969. Fact is, if it wasn't for Volkswagen bugs and the Ronco Veg-O-Matic, it is unlikely any of these people would have survived into the 21st Century.
But there are maps. One is Dante's Inferno, useful in guiding the pilgrim through the nine circles of Hell. The other is Citrus Production Notes, for a above-ground labyrinth of the counterculture recorded in the Histories.
In this novel, the burden of the dark forces fall onto the shoulders of a traveler known only as JP, who has misplaced his girl, Izzy, in the Land of Orange Sunshine. It is likely Izzy is dead, is with the Dead in the Haight Ashbury, or is flying in the guise of a leather-winged gryphon. The blame falls to the grizzly bears of the 22nd Century.
The journey to find Izzy is challenged by Zombies, U-2 spy planes and the Los Angeles Police Department.
Izzy's later quest to find JP is troubled by the demons of Tujunga Canyon, German spies and the guys at the American Motors automobile dealership in North Hollywood.
Eventually JP and Izzy do find each other and take a little vacation in the drylands of New Mexico and Utah. They make good time, getting back to L.A. in only 30 years.
