One day John Freyer decided to sell everything he owned on the internet. He invited his friends over to tag all the possessions in his apartment, and he systematically put them up for sale on eBay. An unopened box of taco shells, half a bottle of mouthwash, almost all of his clothes, his records, his sideburns (in a plastic bag), his family's Christmas presents (not yet given), furniture- John didn't let sentiment or utility stand in his way. Soon his belongings were sold all over the world, with a bag of Porky's BBQ Pork Skins making its way to Japan, and a chair ending up in the Museum of Modern Art. With almost all the objects in his life now gone, he started the second phase of his journey- to visit his onetime possessions in their new homes. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

The interesting premise doesn't deliver the goods though as Freyer roams around (mainly the US but also some foreign climes) and tries to sound deep and wise. The intrusion of September 11 into the plot gives the situation far more gravitas than it deserves and Freyer's concerns following the auctioning of being him at a his birthday party just makes him sound a bit whiny.
