In this darkly whimsical fable that reads like Dr. Seuss reimagining the Tibetan Book of the Dead, a young salmon named Sukai begins his first day of school only to learn from his bear teacher that life's curriculum is brutally simple: spawn and die. Refusing to accept such an unfair universe, Sukai's downstream journey becomes a quest for meaning, where love, loss, and a killer whale teach him what philosophy never could-until his final, inevitable return upstream delivers an ending that transforms tragedy into transcendence. One Dead Fish is destined for cult classic status, a psychedelic children's book for adults that will have readers questioning the nature of existence between the whimsical rhymes.
