Mortarville

By Grant Bailie

A dark commentary on conformity in contemporary life, Mortarville is the story of Jack Smith , a man created from a test tube. Raised in a secret underground government facility with other test-tube boys who are harshly punished for any minor infraction, Jack is taught to understand the outside world by reading comics and watching TV. After numerous escape attempts he is programmed to believe he had a family and released. But, however hard he tries to belong in the real world, he cannot shake the memories of his past, which leads to a spectacular and moving conclusion.
