The Vapid Vanities of Wonder

By Puriya Mirza

Reza Saint-Michel is a rather typical 23 year old of the new millennium. On the first night in June, Reza and two friends embark on a night in New York, encountering a stream of characters along the way. What starts off as a night of lighthearted camaraderie, slowly evolves into a candid reflection of the cultural conversations and dilemmas that this generation is wrapped up in. The young are meant to play, but that doesn't mean they can't also be aware of the world around them. The two modes of being aren't mutually exclusive, they're intrinsically intertwined. This is a story of friendship, an ode to the illuminated city and its myriad scope of characters. It's a portrait of youth in the modern age. Laden with poetic imagery and a glimmering palette of emotions, this is The Vapid Vanities of Wonder.
