Sadomasofixions and Other Tales

This is the story of Cheese-Ass (a wood-carved man) condemned to capital punishment, who one day awakens to find himself hanging on a telephone pole. Without hope and incapable of moving, he fights against himself, his demons, and even his guardian angel. Time passes and still the reasons for understanding why he hangs escape him. Suddenly, a sinister voice interacts with him. Lucy (devil and guardian angel) claims her right to desire, to the pleasure of being her. Together, the two explore different ways of approaching, experiencing, fighting, explaining, and understanding the pain and pleasure of the cruel world of God. We observers don't know who is moving whom (puppet vs puppeteer). Only one thing is clear: Cheese-Ass wants to go back to the metaphysical world from which he came.
