Against a vast and cruel horizon of caustic poetics, Jae-yong is suffering from ennui; can cannibalism save him? Yves Hermite has a hypodermic needle and an abundance of jaundiced fantasies. What is Mrs. Cheng's shocking secret? Must Azra really be part of this remote nightmare? The Metapheromenoi, which might be termed a major contribution to the post-structuralist novel or a harsh saga of degeneracy and dope, is a book of risqu blasphemies and heartbreaking beauty, a swirling adventure in which heroes and heroines eagerly shed their social masks and crumbling morals. Pulsing with frenetic lyricism, it is a behind the scenes look at neuropsychopharmacology and sexual aberration. A lust-filled, liquor-drenched skyrocket that is unlike anything else in literature.

The fifty-eight extraordinary pieces which make up Spells, though brief, most being just a page or two in length, are grandiose in their ambition. These miniatures, which are bathed in the light of violet suns and wrapped in the beams of the old moons, take up the themes of strange magics and poisons, curious births and lost theologies, and are like extracts of abbreviated drama, the sum-total of which might or might not be a visionary guide.
Inspiring references and illusions to both Dante and Plato, Brendan Connell's The Rimini-Ferrara Line is a work that asks pointed questions about the truths of vibrant beauty and the strange experiences of investigational prose. In this graceful and sympathetic book, the author brings a musician's ear and the strategic force of a Napoleon to the infinitely amusing world of Italian trains.

Boasting itself as the first symbolist kung fu novel ever written, the Unofficial History of Pi Wei, tells the story of the lowly Pi Wei and his path of retribution, in which mystical insight and martial training interweave. Organized into fifty-six chapters, and told with an absolute freedom of expression, this extraordinary tale offers a wealth of hidden knowledge and poetic excesses that is at once elegant and humane.This is a work of obvious interest; but one must turn the pages in order to penetrate the secrets.
