existentialintelligenceirrationalityphilosophypoliticssatireshortstory
Dismayed at the erosion of intelligence he sees throughout society a failed writer stages a 'Unite the Bright Rally' outside of the gates of Charlottetown City Hall. 

Filled with existential despair and acerbic wit these short stories or, 'lamentations,' grapple with themes ranging from contemporary politics, to God and religion, to the absurdity of everyday existence.

From the opening moments exploring the unraveling mind of a character on a journey through the vacuity of consumer society, to the finale in which we await the arrival of an absent Messiah, these stories cut to the heart of the human condition.
