Babyboomer contradictions have their story told here in a parody and postmodern style, in the microcosm, generally, of Berleley California. And this is a crime novel.
Red Bautsky majors in anthropology and goes into the CIA. Rake Beuerbach, a criminologist, becomes a legal semiotic prosecutor in the city of Berkeley. His lifelong partner, Natasha Rimsky, is the heroine here, the girl with the gold earring. Enrico Pelican, a graduate of Cal's masters in journalism school, is the narrator.
There are many types of capitalism in the word and it is like a whale in an ocean of signs, such that the whale is unaware of the signs. The important thing here is not to smash the means of communication and make treaties. This is a double tragedy and is PG-13 rated.
