Orvil sits alone in a diner to celebrate his 21st birthday. He feels lonely and abandoned...his new girlfriend just dumped him and his mother recently died. He has no idea who his father is. He hates his first name, lives in a rundown trailer, had sacrificed his studies at City College to care for his ailing parent, and drives trucks just to scrape by. Totally lost since his mother's death, his free time revolves around eating junk food and chugging beers in front of the tube. As he's feeling sorry for himself, he perceives a gunman entering the diner and firing his AR-15 at everyone in sight. This experience forever changes Orvil's life. Powerful and insightful, humourous and tragic, through trial and error, Orvil Smith's story takes us on a tour of modern America from the rural to the urban, from the poor to the rich, and from the righteous to the corrupt.
