AESOP'S FOIBLES
Aesop's Foibles - Story Synopsis
Poor Aesop. He's got all these characters inside his head, the product
of his over-active imagination and a gift from his muse. Trouble is, the
characters won't shut-up. And they're driving him insane. Literally.
This is not a good thing for a young slave in ancient Greece. Now
Aesop has only a few hours to convince his master that he is not crazy
or Aesop will be sold, breaking up is family and breaking apart his
mother's heart. All Aesop has to do is act normal.
Not easy to do when you have a wolf in sheep's clothing, Androcles, a
Lion, a Tortoise, a Hare, an Aunt, a Grasshopper and slew of other
characters that no one else can see, but won't stop pestering our hero.
With the help of Daphinity, his muse, Aesop is finally able to settle the
oddball cast and get them into some kind of story structure. Only
when he controls the characters he's created and forced them into his
well known fables can he quiet the riot in his head and save his family.
