Brown Water Cafe is the story of Lee Francis and the cross country road trip he takes to attend an old friend's wedding and to try to understand the present state of American society. It appears to Lee that people in this country are becoming more and more philosophically lost. Their lives revolve around the most trivial and superficial aspects of existence with little sense of a greater context - a context that could enrich people's lives and prevent them from hurting each other. Lee feels that people are symbolically, once again, looking to the heavens for "God", but now they are seeing ... UFOs. Carl Jung believed that people project their unconscious onto unexplainable objects they see in the sky. Could Americans be projecting their ideas about God or that greater context onto UFOs? Lee wonders if, by asking average Americans about UFOs, one could gain some kind of insight into the American situation in the nineties.
