Standing at the edge of a subway platform, Nathan is doing his best to make it look like he's waiting for a train. He's swirling his head in precise patterns, protecting the word genius from being corrupted in his mind-and in general. It's just another evening in his exhausting search for his next taste of absolute certainty and safety. A theater student at NYU, Nathan learns that embracing creative uncertainty is essential to his craft-but offstage, he's unraveling. Each morning, Nathan spends hours shaking invisible dust out of his clothing that he fears will fall from him as he walks and destroy the sidewalk. He transmits an imaginary orb of energy between his shoulder and his bedroom wall to make himself worthy of friendship. Set against the magnificent ferocity of New York City, Path Illogical is a raw, intimate memoir about how far one young man is willing to go to ensure that every moment is a smashing success free of unknowns. What kind of life is one that is unsure, after all? Is Nathan willing to find out?
