The Screen Savers is a quirky, bittersweet comedy novel laced with mystery, satire and offbeat romance. Adam aspires to be alone. He loves watching non-mainstream films at his local cinema - films that, thankfully, few people want to see. But when the cinema decides to stop showing these films, he must do the unthinkable: make new friends. At the very least he must work with others intent on keeping these screenings going: first, a mysterious woman who knows everything about him, then a group of misfits who are suspiciously similar to his old friends. Together they form The Screen Savers. The Screen Savers is a comedy about friendships and whether to avoid them. Most of the films Adam watches are about how to gain friends - about how to get over your flaws and integrate back into society. But what do you do if you've got too many friends and they're all irritating? How do you create a life doing what you want to do rather than going along with the duty that friendship entails?
