The narrative follows John Kaltenbrunner, a fifteen-year-old navigating the absurdities and conflicts of life in the provincial town of Baker. Surrounded by eccentric characters like factory rats and local zealots, John faces the challenge of protecting his thriving poultry and sheep farming business from those who wish to exploit his ailing mother. Blending grotesque humor with a poignant critique of conformity and narrow-mindedness, the story showcases John's fierce determination to defend his legacy against overwhelming odds.
