A thread of three lives confront the personification of appearances as it grows from larva to adult. At the dead-end of the future a telepath assists the embodiment of insanity and is marooned in the mind of a flea. In the primeval past one quadruped forages for food as a sentient cancer swallows the last of Earth's living tissue. Between the present's many crossroads a jobless coolie that cannot die kills for rebellion and revenge. All this as a desire for sleep returns in the heart of existence.
