Finnegan Frotz, an anonymous, bitter, and extraordinarily pale black musician, lyricist and compulsive cynic of German-Scottish origin, flies from Kirkwall, Orkney Islands, to Slovenia, a small country to the northeast of Italy. Upon his arrival, he joins Amalia Winegirl, songstress and occasional fling, and her half-brother Randy, bass player and herb aficionado. Together they form a band called Cynicism Management and pump all their efforts into creating what can only be described as a collection of smash hit singles in odd time signatures.However, prying eyes notice Finnegan at the airport. Something has been etched into his skin, and this catches the wrong kind of attention. Unbeknownst – at first, at least – to any of its members, Finnegan's band finds itself in the middle of a complex international conspiracy involving a malevolent corporation and a couple of executives with a diabolical plan. Add a colourful crowd of peculiar characters, an ad hoc group of female undercover agents, a voluptuous Portuguese nymphomaniac, a few bearded mujahideen, a sexy case of Stockholm syndrome, an online computer game, a slightly out-of-place but horny U.S. marine, a swarm of nosy cockroaches, and Bear in Underwear to the mix... And get ready for a rollercoaster of entangled plot lines, bizarre dialogues and ridiculous incidents, culminating in a shocking revelation.

Bori Praper is a Slovenian musician, writer and translator, living in the Canary Islands. Currently he focuses predominantly on his slightly belated literary efforts (Bori published his first novel in English at the tender age of 36) as well as on "Cynicism Management", his progressive / alternative rock band; "Ray Kosmick", his psychedelic rock / indietronica / soundtracks alter ego; and a few shorter-term side projects.

Bori's debut novel "Cynicism Management", a satire with elements of sci-fi/cyberpunk, was published in 2013 by a small U.K. e-book publisher. In 2015, Bori decided to hop on the indie author train, so he published the updated 2nd edition of "Cynicism Management". In March 2016, he published "Pendulum Pet", his second novel. In 2019, the publisher River Boat Books saw fit to include Bori's debut novel Cynicism Management: A Rock & Roll Fable in its list of new releases for the summer/autumn of 2019.

Bori is currently collaborating with Rick Harsch on his "communal" novel titled The Assassination of Olof Palme. He is also writing Dog Days, the third book in the Cynicism Management series, as well as composing music for it.
