Budding Prospects by T. C. Boyle
A Pastoral
The story follows Felix Nasmyth, a disillusioned man who is lured by the promise of quick riches into an ill-fated marijuana-growing scheme in the remote hills of Northern California. Along with a ragtag group of companions, Felix faces a series of misadventures and escalating challenges, from the perils of nature to the threat of law enforcement. As the dream of easy money turns into a grueling ordeal, Felix grapples with his own ideals and the harsh realities of life, leading to a humorous yet poignant exploration of ambition, friendship, and the quest for meaning.
