From the cover: "A tricenarian slacker navigates the absurd and the mundane in the Midwestern city of College Town. His dogged quest for "a way out" is hampered by a succession of the uncanny, from a fiendish bankruptcy hearing, to a cryptic, and unpredictable epidemic. College Town is a pithy trek through dive bars and dingy laundromats, and the thoughts we encounter waiting on the last load."
