A dystopian, rock'n'roll, speculative space operatic NOVEL. Call it what you will. Chasing Oranges is about survival and struggle and a shrinking apartment. Space pirates, and fart-propelled rocket launchers. It's time travel, jazz, and the blues. Explosions and corruption. It's hope, death and love. A piano, a nutty professor and an eagle-headed individual.Chasing Oranges is a quasi comical depiction of a self inflicted, rational madness which is doomed, according to some, to inevitable take over this beautiful place we call earth. It’s the story of a few desperate and at times inspirational characters trying to carve an existence. It’s the young writer, Jack Landan, trying to make sense of this thing called life. It’s the tale of a few intergalactic pirates and their escapades. It’s the untold story of the unexpected, faceless leader of the resistance. A vicious cancer that fights for the people. The forgotten masses, that live beneath it all, the sewers and riches. It’s the chase for the OrAngE. A drug so potent that all but a few, wise, clear minded individuals seek for its sexual mind release. With it of course, come the nerve-racketing side effects of any respectable drug of choice. Dragged into it all, Jack Landan is forced to adapt or die as his flat starts to shrink around him, and his flirt with the resistance could end up costing him more than he bargained for.
