Meet Afga Somerset, former James Madison University student and one time promising poet, now a town character getting nowhere in his life, only deeper into his head. But when his best friend is found dead, presumably murdered, Afga becomes the center of a police investigation, and his inner/outer life shifts into high gear.
Meanwhile, long-standing preoccupations continue to haunt Afga's life: his emotional battle over a failed marriage; his ex-wife's new lesbian romance and its impact on her eight year old daughter for whom Afga has become the official baby-sitter; and above all else, the surreal dialogue he conducts with a father who disappeared long ago. All leading to discoveries that solve more than one mystery, while creating a few more.
AFGA is a picaresque novel with serious as well as comic overtones.
