The fictional black and white facade of Paul Murphy & Aaron Eckleburg's childhood is rapidly vanishing before their eyes, as they recount a day in the life struggle with depression and loss of innocence. Throughout the day's events, Paul & Aaron come to realize an essential tenet of a good life- friendship. The youth of sixteen years pull together the wisdom of their Judeo-Christian upbringings with the gifts of knowledge through ancient & modern literature and the cathartic relief of contemporary music to deal with the daily trials and tribulations of teenage life. It's a search for personal connection and guidance in an ever-growing impersonal society.
