St John Morris is an eccentric and possibly slightly mad seventeen year old. After bemusing and irritating his teachers by writing strange letters and stories instead of working, he is asked to leave his school and so begins writing as a form of therapy. However, his letters begin to mutate in to dark, surreal comic-fantasy in which the third and first person often become blurred. Soon St John the writer and St John the protagonist combine to beget a series of comic escapades set within a strange and aberrant world of non-sequiturs, anachronisms, and eccentric characters; Mr Baxter from Grange Hill, a round table death squad who try to devise increasingly outlandish ways for people to die and a pet lime called Ranjit.
Eventually, St John and the companions he acquires during his crazy meanderings find themselves aboard The Medina Star, an ocean liner which, due to an instrument fault, can take them anywhere they can imagine. Unfortunately, St John's imagination takes them to the boundaries of reality where they find themselves in a world inhabited by, among infinite others; Socrates and John Virgo in a burger bar discussing the nature of hatred, an out of work actor who dabbles in quantum physics and Franz Beckenbauer, living under a fishing lake.
