A teenage boy, Charlie, moves away from home to become a writer but
soon finds himself tortured with conflict over whether to return to
a "normal" life with his friends or continue all alone. As the tear

portions of previous writings: most notably a piece on the
fictitious author, C.N. Williams. After introducing us to
Williams's wonderland Charlie's own reality begins to blur. The

our hero and his main character struggle to find balance--Both
taunted by genius and constantly at odds with time."It was

infinity. And then it was over. It had all taken place in a measure
of time too small to imagine..."
