Kicked out of college and harassed by his lawyer, Miles Faber
abandons New York and embarks on a defiant pilgrimage across the
Caribbean to find the shrine of Sib Legeru, an obscure poet and
painter. But in the streets of Castita's capital, where a wild
religious festival is in full swing, a series of bizarre encounters
- including his own repulsive doppelganger (the son of a circus
bird-woman) - and disturbing family revelations await Miles, who
soon finds himself a willing victim of dynastic destiny. A darkly
surreal comedy of dazzling linguistic inventiveness, MF is an
outrageous tale of blood, lust and the machinations of fate.
