The unhappy characters who live in these pages want to reverse their condition at all costs. They meet unexpected resistance when they try to do so. The book crosses genres, including humor, horror, science-fiction, fantasy, and mystery. The overall theme (i.e. trying to define and cure unhappiness) is a take on the American Psychological Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (particularly Axis II, Personality Disorders), with twenty-two chapters, following characters who don’t fit into neat symptomatological categorizations. It is also a parody of self-help culture (especially New Age and Pseudo-scientific cures). The title of the book is Incidental Characters and Other Subtypes, which is the section of the manual these characters would be found under (if there were such a section, that is). The book is a series of ‘case studies’ of odd psychological and fantastical twist of fates. It is not an attack on the institution of modern psychiatry but intended as parody.
