Mr. Nofus is a second-hand human. Unable to fit into the culture on society’s terms, he transforms reality into something manageable through magical thinking, graft, and grandiose plans. Through the power of belief and persuasion, Mr. Nofus can talk his way to the top, and just as easily slip in and out of trouble. Yet, his identity, life events and possessions are borrowed props for his act. He is constantly in need of re-inventing himself when these go up in smoke. His crumbling, alienated, family is the only constant in his series of pratfalls and successes.
