β¦ Synopsis
Jex Blackwell Saves the WorldΒ is a Dadaesque homage to Donald Sobol's Encyclopedia Brown series, or perhaps a Sobolesque homage to the Dada movement. Β The main character is a sixteen-year old punk with a secret genius for medicine and an equal passion for music; but life in her native Los Angeles home - filled with dark, gritty city streets and strange, sometimes desperate characters - is not easy.

Instead, she spends her days quietly tending to her job as a librarian's assistant, and her nights tagging walls and running from cops.
