Frank the painter longs for an orderly and predictable life...but, sadly, it is not to be.
Frank the painter's great mission is to renovate Cleveland with his Sistine Chapel-inspired garage art. A big distraction, however, is his lust for beautiful Carla Gymboni, the diminutive mob boss of Cuyahoga County-an obsession that has driven him to clandestine acts of stationery crime. But unforeseen events are about to radically change Frank the painter's life, providing him with an instant family and a motley crew of unusual acrobatic friends. And in the wake of a violent hometown terror attack, he'll find himself careening from breakdown to recovery, from Michelangelo to mandalas, from capitalism to crime fighting, in search of truth, ethical purpose, and a spiritual epiphany or two.
Welcome to Frank the painter's world-a surreal yet strangely recognizable realm populated by gangsters and goons, villains and vigilante do-gooders, little people, Native Americans, superheroes, circus performers, and a hermaphrodite child who just might be humanity's best and last hope.
