The Man Who Snorted The World is the darkly comic tale of Chester, a lost, tired and broken man, whose shut-in world is transformed by a mysterious package from an old friend, the charismatic and crazy Jimmy. Its contents are a letter and a small bag of powder. Failing to heed the warning and resist the temptation, with his life in crisis, he snorts a line of the unknown substance. Its power is beyond his imagining and this one action kick starts a whole chain of events that threaten to destroy the world.

His journey takes in a couple of very big psychedelic trips, a chance at romance, an encounter with a religious cult called 'The Chidren of Tarquin', and finally a reunion with Jimmy and the truth about the origin of the mystical dust, 'The Essence'.
