Wilder Crick, the worst presidential candidate in history, is dead.
Now his reluctant apprentice Tom and ruthless campaign manager Shelly must carry out his final order—a bizarre, posthumous search for the true, hidden nature of reality.
With time running out, the line between philosophy and survival blurs. Nuclear warheads loom, a doomsday cult grows bolder, and a violent refutation of the ego self might be humanity's last hope.
Some books tell a story,” writes Literary Titan’s Priscilla Evans. “Others drag you into a chaotic, unrelenting experience that scrambles your brain and leaves you questioning everything. Cleave the Sparrow is the latter. It’s a fever dream wrapped in satire, political absurdity, existential horror, and bursts of unfiltered genius.”
