Description

Jeff is a twenty-two year old writer whose entire life revolves around the fact that he's morally against it. Most of his time is spent staring at the wall. He contemplates the meaning of life, the universe, and everything constantly, and in the end, he comes to the conclusion that despite what Douglas Adams proclaimed, the number 42 meant absolutely nothing. The only reasonable solution is suicide, and after years of toying with the idea, he finally does it. There is only one problem, though. See, Jeff never believed in the afterlife, but as it turns out. Heaven does exist. Immediately after his death, Jeff is confronted with the same ordeals he had in a previous life. Everyone in Heaven is severely depressed and God, a being whose resemblance to Bill Murray is uncanny, is just as depressed as everyone else. In addition to the depression, Heaven is littered with mind numbing chores. Jeff has to find an apartment, and since it is a capitalistic society, he also has to find a job. The Virgin Mary, married to God, is no longer much of a virgin, and as time goes on, she leaves God for a guy she met on E-Harmony. Even Jesus, unable to handle the fame, renounces his role as a savior. The story follows Jeff as he searches for some purpose in a seemingly meaningless world, and he finds it in the most unlikely of places, in the arms of a prostitute.
