This fantastic novella details the wild adventures and journeys of one Mr. Noisy in his desperate attempts to obtain sustenance from those who would begrudge his powerful vocal cords. Replete with vibrant motifs and a stunning denouement, the reader is swept on a thrilling ride through Wobbletown and is given a rare glimpse into the lives of its inhabitants. Sometimes charming, sometimes disturbing, but always unmistakably human, the residents of Wobbletown present us with a microcosm which could (lo, should) be a paradigm for a society of any scale which strives to build itself upon a foundation of decency. In his relentless quest for the highly symbolic loaf of bread and piece of meat, Mr. Noisy will be forced to face not just the prejudices of Mrs. Crumb and Mr. Bacon, but also the repressed demons of a torturous childhood whose indelible scars will define both Mr. Noisy and his eternal quest for self-betterment. Seemingly doomed from page one by his boisterous hubris, Mr. Noisy will stun and delight the reader with his unlikely triumphs over the most inexorable opponent of all, Nature.
