You Can Forget It (ARC)
註釋While walking the streets of Manhattan, recent Nigerian immigrant Davis Ocran is struck on the head by a pen from above. But he is even more struck by the message inscribed on its shaft: You can forget it. Seeing this message as nothing less than divine and of great import, Ocran decides he must find the omniscient one who sent it to him.As fate would have it, Ocran's quest intersects with the paths of an accidentally wealthy young man with no direction in life, the man's lonely attorney, an entertainment manager with little in the way of scruples, two lesbians who manage a fast-food restaurant, and an Elvis impersonator who takes his role a little too seriously.Ocran's mission to find his Holy Pen-Man takes us not only through the dysfunctional lives of these characters but through some of the more dysfunctional elements of early 21st-century America, all woven together with a lethally humorous dose of satire, farce, and wit.
