Acts of God - Hardcover

The twenty-first-century heir to Kurt Vonnegut, Kanan Gill's debut, Acts of God, is a madcap futuristic romp that dares to question the meaning of existence--with equal parts reverence and hilarity.

Private detective P. Manjunath thinks like fire and works like dust as he sets out to investigate existential cataclysms unfolding all over the globe--not knowing that the ripples in reality he sees are being caused by Dr. Krishna, a scientist in a utopian future and technically the God of their world.

As Manjunath's investigation disrupts God's plans, a Danish police officer attains enlightenment, a lapel pin gives disruptive advice, a sentient wall provides the key to creativity, a pill cures the human condition, and everyone in the world develops a lisp at the same time.

A blend of philosophical provocation, inventive lyricism, humor, and chaos, Acts of God marks the evolution of one of the finest voices in comedy.
