For The First Time Ever is in a pure field. It cannot be reduced to boy meets
girl. The real action takes place in the caverns of the mind.
For
The First Time Ever is a metaphor for narrative and for life that floats willy
nilly on the tide of the words. Helen: I am so profoundly
tragically unsure of myself and amazingly fragile but I am not dead. No, not
by a long shot. Debra: If God deals you lemons you may as well make lemonade.
For
the First Time Ever is the story of three humans covered with a gel like substance
in a very agitated state and suffering from hallucinations It is also the story
of three robots sent to war and their journey back to civilian robot life. In
the end, they are transformed into constantly moving happiness machines.
FOR
THE FIRST TIME EVER.
