The last thing you are expecting is a cavalcade of characters intent on inciting your vision of religious well-being, but Mark says he sees something in you that will test the limits of your imagination. Mark, the nihilist atheist, wants you to reinvent the Bible. Soon you find yourself faced with an onslaught of information. You scurry between meetings with a Wiccan, a Santero, and a Muslim. You extract knowledge from a Jew and a Catholic and a Protestant. You suffer the rantings of a once executioner for the Georgia penal system, and have your head shaved by a young Hindu angling for Guru. And all the while Mark is there, informing your thoughts, drawing out your words with his smirk, with his sex.You are left to wonder if Mark and your eccentric, powdered wig wearing roommate Mabel are there as your lover, as your friend, or as your jailers. You are left to wonder if you can create the work Mark insists you'll produce or even make it out alive.
