Funny Book Trailer: https://youtu.be/A2qlctVxpJw Would you like a couch with that painting? Obscurity is a way of life for Gavin Vonn Getch, a painter who works at a frame shop in a small New England town. His life changes when billionaire Gary Eastman enters his shop and becomes the ultimate patron: a lifetime commission for all his work in exchange for a crap-load of money. Some of his artist buddies envy him and others think he's sold out. Curious as to where his paintings are being displayed, he makes a trip to the DLC headquarters, where a shocking discovery forces him to reevaluate his deal with Eastman and his identity as an artist. Why does an artist create? What alternatives are there to completely selling out? Is there no genius-only marketing? The book is a satirical, and sometimes surreal look at the art world. OK, I kind of went nuts. Along with my book called Artifice, I'm including the 6 hour audio book on Wattpad. Since the book is written in first person, it made sense that I narrate the whole shebang. Instead of me doing bad versions of other character voices, I used more than 40 other voice actors to read all the other parts. But first watch the animated book trailer that was created from the audio book to get a better idea of what this project is all about. This is all in the video attached to chapter 1. The book is finished, I'll probably be posting 3 times a week for 40 chapters. Watch the funny animated book trailer: https://youtu.be/A2qlctVxpJw

The novel depicts the plight of the French peasantry demoralized by the French aristocracy in the years leading up to the revolution, the corresponding brutality demonstrated by the revolutionaries toward the former aristocrats in the early years of the revolution, and many unflattering social parallels with life in London during the same time period. It follows the lives of several protagonists through these events. The most notable are Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton. Darnay is a former French aristocrat who falls victim to the indiscriminate wrath of the revolution despite his virtuous nature, and Carton is a dissipated English barrister who endeavors to redeem his ill-spent life out of his unrequited love for Darnay's wife.
