あらすじ・解説
Struggling to raise his autistic son, Jim Simple finds himself in a desperate quest to father more "healthy" children. Enter Passenger, a scientist working on the cutting edge of morality.
With intersecting interests, Jim and Passenger walk down a road none have traveled before, where the creation of life may result in death, itself.
As a single father struggling to come to terms with raising his autistic teenage son, Jim comes to a drunken realization that he's been robbed of the normal experience of fatherhood, and is likely never to get it back. Accepting that his son, Robin, is a lost cause, Jim is newly determined to explore different avenues through which he can secure more children--healthy children--before the time on his clock runs out. But as a man, and as a widower unwilling to have children with a woman other than his deceased wife, the options are few and far between, forcing Jim to take a leap of faith into the arms of a black-market scientist, called Passenger. But not all is what it seems, and sometimes the hope of gaining back what was lost, results in the hell of losing everything else.
Told in a single sit-down, Jim excises all his demons through this confession of sins, old and new. Seeking not to excuse his behavior but to explain it, Jim fearlessly bares the uncomfortable truth of his story for all to hear.
