The Flaneur (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780578953755)

The Flaneur is a collection of short stories that take place at a cafe; each story is a conversation overheard from the perspective of the narrator (The Flaneur), ranging from the mundane day-to-day to the downright absurd. The characters in each story search for meaning in a surreal landscape, forcing existence itself to sit down and order.

In this mythos of eavesdropping, The Flaneur prospers as an eccentric observer, watching the lives of others unfold. The café is his universe, and he oversees it with glee.
