The Voices tells the story of Jerry Hickfang, a seemingly loveable but slightly odd factory worker. In reality, however, he's a schizophrenic loner tiptoeing on the edge of insanity. His initially innocent crush on a co-worker turns dangerous when he succumbs to the voices only he can hear from his cat and dog. Torn between his desire for society's version of normality and the surreal version of his own, Jerry's voices eventually prevail and drive him down a twisted, criminal path.
