Primaland is a metaphysical vaudeville freak show; part absurd comedy, part political espionage thriller, part mythological fable, and part beat philosophy fever-dream, set in a place that all of us know exists, but few have seldom seen. We begin with a mysterious traveler referred to only as The Stranger, who takes to the road in search of a mythical place called Primaland but instead becomes the unwitting savior of a character who "resembles Bob Dylan after a fortnight of amphetamines," and is thus shanghaied into a series of events that are never within his control: standing in as an "assassination dummy" for a "high-ranking government official" by the name of Malick; robbing a bank with a family of redneck criminals (aptly named The Crooks); murder; and spying, in a clandestine operation to overthrow the government. Along the way, The Stranger mixes paths with a variety of gleefully mad, sometimes despicable, but always colorful characters, among them: Keller, the Chief of Police (who moonlights--forgive the pun--as a werewolf); Malabar, a P.T. Barnum-esque showman who operates a menagerie of mythological figures in a remote mansion known as the Festival of Others; The Sponge, whose touch can instill one with visions they might wish they had never had; and, last but not least, the physical embodiment of chance, itself—-Mr. Kint. Primaland is a place you will want to travel through, as well, if it’s something new and invigorating that you’re seeking to find. Only one piece of advice: the revelations are not only to be found at story’s end, but all along the road itself. Paperback, Label: Haven Publications, Haven Publications, Product group: Book, Published: 2003-12-30, Studio: Haven Publications, Sales rank: 19450616.
