Synopsis
Monkey & Man is an existential fable which tracks the lives of a monkey and a man who meet through the Great Lottery, and end up sharing a comfortable house with a white picket fence in the Old Neighborhood. While the stories explore adult concerns about learning, work, family, friendship, living and dying, the form and language is cast in a way that would be understandable to a child. Each story is punctuated by the Monkey, Man, or some other character posing the question "What is the point of this?" as Monkey & Man meet increasingly complicated obstacles but ultimately learn something new before moving on to the next set of problems and circumstances.
