Journey Through a Land of Minor Annoyances (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781604892642)

Fiction. Film. After being diagnosed with three months to live, 20 year old misfit Chaz Chase decides a road trip will help him find the meaning of life--and maybe apologize to certain people for being a jerk along the way. He adopts a dog as a traveling companion, but questions his own sanity when Max suddenly talks, claiming to be the reincarnation of a famous Hollywood director. Chaz meets many colorful characters along his journey, some bordering on hallucinogenic in the actions they perform, the wisdom they proclaim. And then comes Clitty, a pistol-packing femme fatale dreaming of Hollywood stardom. In the most important piece of the wisdom puzzle, Chaz falls in love. Together he and Clitty drive to Salton Sea where a reincarnated Max directs the final scene of Chaz's brief but quirky life.
