Synopsis "The Marvelous Saga of the MERCANARY(TM): A Sells-Word's Story (in English)"
Harrison Stockton Bueller thinks he's hit bottom when he makes a new friend. Enter: the MERCANARY(TM). This is The Marvelous Saga of the MERCANARY(TM). It's also the tale of Harry's nightmarish misadventures. Problematic Press is proud to present to you this gonzo picaresque novel... or something. Is there ever any solace? This is it. This is lit! ----- Somewhere between Holden Caulfield, Ignatius J. Reilly, and BoJack Horseman, you'll find Harrison Stockton Bueller playing with his G.I. Joes. MERCANARY(TM), a sells-word inspired by a typo, is a metafictional hero who's been drafted for lit's sake on land, sea, and air. His mission? Word. ----- In the words of the author: "This is a gonzo picaresque novel. It's a work of intermedial metafiction. It's a cautionary tale. It's a sob story. It's a farcical melodrama. It is high art. It adapts a 'zine of poetry and adventure. It adapts a memeoem, which is literally a new poetic art form that I invented for this. It is the culmination of my life's work in literature. It's ballsy and hubristic and vulnerable all at once. The protagonist is an anti-hero. The sidekick is really something else. The odds are against them, but they're in this to win it. Together, they make things weird. Well, this thing is certainly weird." ----- David Reynolds hasn't won any awards for his creative writing, but his most shocking anecdote has won him more beer than he could possibly ever drink. He lives in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, where he teaches English at Atlantic Canada's largest university.
