Chronicle of an English Morpheme Addict - Paperback

by Steven Mooney (Author)

In the sound bite era syllabic servitude is the order of the day but morpheme addiction flies below theradar of speech pathologists but not Phono-morph specialists like Randal Poe, dedicated to treating the tics of the itty-bitty utterance until he meets his match in Claudia Roget, a trans-gendered lexicologist who for four-hundred years has hunted her uncle who she insists will destroy the world by stealing lexemes from the Time continuum.She's crazy of course, but love too is a form of madness and Randal cannot abide without her, so they prowl the Boroughs of Manhattan and also through the Whorls of Time, or are these sequences the subconscious rationale for eerie events of time and place that spiral toward a vortex of history redefined? When the hunters become the hunted and things are not what they seem, the only thing that can save them is their love and their love of language in Chronicle of an English Morpheme Addict.
