Description

From the streets of Taboor City to the Molokai Fracture Zone, trouble finds Jefir Zaqq like a hook. When a ten-dollar street fight leaves him the target of a vengeful warlord, Jefir accepts the help of a mysterious stranger who helps him escape to America, where everything has a price.

On the run in Honolulu, Jefir throws in with the salty crew of the fishing boat Monkey Fist and tries to survive the whirring gears of capitalism, corporate security, secrets, lies and home furnishings in the human-sized space between what lies over the horizon and the life left behind.

If you like the way a pony tail looks coming out the back of a ball cap, ice cream trucks, karaoke, sports gambling, Fleetwood Mac, clear liquor and the Code of the Sea and if you’ve ever wondered what the world looks like from atop the three-legged stool of intuition, confidence and rhythm, you can buy this book.

After an amusing and informative prologue, the situation quickly becomes very confusing. The humor is completely absurd, somewhat like in a Sacha Baron Cohen movie, but where the plot has completely gone off the rails. Everything happens too quickly, and it's difficult to keep up with the action and understand why things are unfolding the way they are. It was too much for me, and I struggled to get into it.
