Summary:
"The runner believed life was a linear and mechanical process of perpetual momentum, and the impersonator saw it as a self-actualizing power struggle and a quest for gold. Burdened by their own aimless knowledge of success, they embark on an odyssey that takes them from the cavernous buffet halls of a near future Las Vegas strip, and through the scorched earth stretched out before them. In BRADLEY OF HIM, Connor Willumsen,...engraves a hyperreal satire that makes a confusion of the frontier between character and performer."--Page [4] of cover.
"Bradley's gone running for a role, but his life is as hazy as a hot- road mirage. A somewhat familiar method actor prepares for a role as long-runner under the heat and bright lights of a near future Las Vegas. The lines between character and actor are blurring under the verisimilitude of the Vegas strip, the desert sun and the impossibly shiny surface of Bradley's shades."--Publisher's website.
