Tropic of Orange Lib/E
In a surreal Los Angeles, the Tropic of Orange, a literal line of latitude, begins to move north, causing bizarre and interconnected events. A diverse cast of characters, including a Japanese journalist, a homeless philosopher, and a Mexican truck driver, find their lives converging amidst this unfolding chaos. The narrative explores themes of globalization, borders, and the fluidity of identity in a world turned upside down.
