ALMOST: Memoirs of a Mediocre Messiah

A drawing by Piranesi of a fantastical crossroads stuffed with monumental works of art and architecture, overload by colorful psychedelic letters that say "ALMOST"

ALMOST: Memoirs of a Mediocre Messiah is half domestic drama half mutating insane hallucination of the end of the world, the world having laughed itself to death. A man and a woman fight for the future of the planet; a baby hallucinates strange and wonderful things in bent, iridescent, ornately overhanging language; and an oddball narrator moles around poking you in the eye, sticking out his foot to trip you up. Is this weird bungler the messiah? Can he defeat his delirium? Who will save us?

It will be published by Ephesus Press in 2026.
