The River Troll is strange and darkly comic illustrated Y/A novel featuring a nameless protagonist we call "friend." Late at night our friend wanders a little and ponders quite a lot on a long walk along a river looking for a reason to keep on living. He meets up with a troll and a few other all-night ghouls as he drifts along, searching for purpose. They all find it amazing our friend can negotiate his way through the day posing as a junior high school art teacher.
