Overview
Synopsis
After Donny ends up missing his daughter's sixteenth birthday and his wife leaves him, he decides to sell everything he has at a huge yard sale. His two friends Buck and Louise are worried about him, but he ploughs on. Eventually, he starts to explore concepts of space and time, and he ends up discovering a universe that is almost backwards, where children choose their own parents, people become younger over time, and his wife, Rita, still lives with him.
