"You placed the jar on the pool table under the light. It was a large pickle jar, round and fat to our nine-year-old hands. We rotated the jar in front of us slowly. I was speechless. In the jar, suspended in crystal clear liquid was a baby. Shadows of its bones were visible through its translucent skin, its arms held in front of its body like a little boxer.
'It's my brother,' you said." My Backyard

Triumph of the Will (in progress)
It's about Jack who has been summoned to a "castle" nestled in the mountainous
coast of Big Sur. He is about to discover that he is the son of Thomas
Müller, and the brother of Zeke Miller the owner and builder of Oz.
His father was a reluctant member of the Hitler Youth and captured by the
Americans during the last stages of the war. Placed in a POW camp in South
Carolina, he escapes and joins Dean Moriarty and others in their road trip
across the states. It seems that Thomas believes that he is the center
of universe, that he is in control of time, space, events, that he is God.
Jack is warned about the existance of his father and that his father wants
to meet him. This meeting is to be avoided at all costs.
