    • Autobiografický román - koláž - báseň. Vnitřní dilema, jež zažívá člověk, který se narodil jako muž, ačkoliv se cítí být ženou. Ústřední postava Jack Daluz (podoba tohoto hrdiny s kerouacovským Jackem Duluozem není náhodná) nás s sebou bere na cestu do bizarního světa undergroundových časopisů a kreslí přitom portréty lidí kolem nich. Autor, povoláním univerzitní profesor antropologie, kulturně-literárním zazemím i poetikou blízký básníkům Garymu Snyderovi a Allenu Ginsbergovi, rozebírá otázku osobní svobody z hlediska biologicko-genetických omezení.
