Nevermind: The Last Temptation of Frank

Frank Teeman is leading a happy anonymous life in Manhattan painting the unusual images that get stuck in his mind. One day a wealthy doyenne spots a painting that hangs in the grocery store where he works and Frank's career takes off and his life is never the same. "Security is mostly superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable." Helen Keller-Let Us Have Faith
