Wonderful World (2009) (original) (raw)
Ben Singer is a failed children�s folk singer, a career proofreader, a less-than-extraordinary weekend dad, and perhaps the most negative man alive. Floundering in all aspects of his life, Ben�s only comfort comes from the regular chess games and friendly debates on game theory with his Senegalese roommate Ibou. When Ibou is suddenly struck ill, Ben�s pessimistic worldview seems unequivocally confirmed. It takes an extended visit from Ibou�s sister Khadi for Ben to realize that cynicism may be all a matter of perspective.
