Description
The
Pequod's Coffin is a comedic indictment of greed and the baser elements of
American culture. Ishmael Stockton, named by his father after the narrator of
Moby Dick (though he has never read it), finds himself swept by circumstance
into working for a vast, faceless hospital patient financing corporation.
Idiotic bureaucracy, outsourcing to India, and mindless regulations conspire to
turn what should be a dream life into a nightmare. A ridiculously incompetent
boss, an understanding wife, and a lifelong friend who is the Queequeg to
Ishmael's well... Ishmael, are just a few of the hilarious cast of characters
who drive the mayhem onward. When a cult leader steals one of Ishmael's
business cards from his briefcase on a flight from Portland to Denver, all hell
breaks loose. His life spirals out of control and just as Ishmael contemplates
going on a cross-country crime spree, redemption is delivered from a surprising
source. Anyone who has ever encountered the wrong kind of job challenges, had
conflict with their boss, or felt crushed by the machine will relate to this
story - full of crazy characters, bizarre circumstances, and hilarious
situations.
