Plot Summary of Short Works of Absurdity
"Non-stop laughter! Orpheus Roy is a extraordinarily comical, witty, and insane man who can talk, talk, talk about everything and anything. His letters to random female Internet models, movie stars, and other celebrities will you have rolling on the floor. His short anecdotes are clever and wacky and his short stories share his hysterical outtake on the world around him. If you are looking for a laugh, or in this case a laugh a minute, you must have Short Works of Absurdity by Orpheus Roy.
