Theophilus Alvor, a young poet, came to New York City hoping for fame and fortune. But his money has run out, he is still unemployed (remember, this is 1932), and nobody appreciates his poetry -- especially a strange "Ode to Antares" especially dear to him. He stands on the Brooklyn Bridge planning to commit suicide. ...

A lonely and displaced poet finds a home in a distant universe - where he becomes, at once, a monster, prophet and lover!
