Myers is a science fiction novel written in the late 1940s. The story revolves around Marc Pillsworth, a man who inadvertently ages backward after taking mysterious pills called Fixage. The narrative blends elements of fantasy and humor, featuring the enchanting character Toffee, who embodies Marc's subconscious desires and engages with the world he inhabits.  At the start of the book, we encounter a vivid dreamlike valley where Toffee resides, eagerly awaiting to possibly materialize into reality as Marc deals with the pressures of his life. Meanwhile, Marc is immersed in a conversation with a rather eccentric character, Mr. Culpepper, who is trying to convince him about the virtues of the Fixage pills. As Marc's condition deteriorates due to stress at work, he unintentionally consumes some of the pills and begins to regress in age, leading to comedic and chaotic events involving Toffee and themselves as childlike figures. This sets the stage for an adventure highlighting themes of identity, imagination, and the absurdities of adulthood.
