These are the worst of times, these are the beast of times. Its Dxas, so tag it on something. Enter James Aberdeen, half optimist, half masochist, and half something else. This pensive, young immigrant is about to take a leap from high school alienation to university angst. Centred in London, this passage evokes the contemplation that his days of frivolousness are numbered and his descent into responsibility is about to begin. During this careful evolution into adulthood, taking place over summer vacation, he ponders daily encounters and muses about the mysteries and ironies of life; all while trying to have FUN. Naturally, James opinions are developed relative to the naivety of a new adult, ranging from the enigma of heavy petting to that of laymen quantum mechanics.
As summer draws to a close, the story winds to an unexpected finale. In fact, in this tales quaint imitation of life, many things are not as they appear.
The narrators adventures, both in mind and body, are often complimented by the presence of three close friends, each with very different perspectives. All four are characters in their own right, hobbling along on lifes comical journey.
