In the Vast and Boundless Deep

By Kenny Mooney

In the shadow of disaster.

In an enormous, abandoned tower, a man is on a quest to meet his god. As he climbs the floors of empty apartments, he will face his fears, his guilt, his sins.

In the depths of an ancient mine, a woman crawls through the darkness. Far underground she rambles to herself, recounting the stories of her life, her myths, her fables of old.

In the vast and boundless deep, memories blur.

In his second novel, Kenny Mooney (author of The Gift Garden and DESK CLERK) combines his tense and feverish prose poetry with formal experimentation to manifest a world not quite our own, inhabited by nameless and timeless characters who seem to reflect and refract each other in multiple ambiguous ways. Calling to mind the work of Samuel Beckett, In the Vast and Boundless Deep is told in two parts: one a single paragraph, the other a fragmented ramble of words, unbroken by punctuation, but interrupted with stories and myths that may or may not be memories and glimpses of the past.
