The House of William T. Frehling

This book has no plot. It does have a deep surrealistic narrative filled with carefully planned story twists, complex symbolism, political intrigue, and self-referential satire, but that implies nothing about a plot.

Rangsey Aaronson, just out of grad school with a useless art history Ph.D., is moving into a new house, and needs to get some of his papers signed by the landlord, William T.

Frehling. However, entering his landlord's office transports him into a strange alternate universe contained in the confines of one enormous mansion. And what's worse, Frehling is nowhere to be found. Rangsey befriends a resident of the house named Tara, and with her he sets off on a quest to find Frehling within this enormous acid trip, finding themselves in a series of completely inconsequential situations along the way while constantly being hunted by a man with three eyes under his nose named, well, the man with three eyes under his nose.
