So begins the story of Uncle, one of life s most accomplished underachievers. A morose bachelor squashed between the legacy of a dozen futile jobs and his mother's endless disapproval, Uncle remains alive tot the possibility that, with a little help from booze, sex and writing, life might offer something more meaningful.
