A little girl is a tasty morsel in the world of Self. A snake with a face not unlike that of a woman means to swallow her whole. A wizard with arms where his legs should be has twice the hands to do her harm. Her Imaginary Enemy claims to be her real friend. Audrey must wander to find where she is going. She must run or fight to survive the prowling horrors.
People hide in their cities from a world teeming with monsters. A Shining Darkness becomes the god of the cities... and the citizens invite the monsters in. Human life is made inhuman or is deemed "useless" and fed to horrors. Men and women flee into the perilous wilderness and hide in the ruins of an earlier civilization. Their own people come after them, costumed as monsters and with murderous intent. The fight for survival becomes a strange war that shall decide the fate of humanity.
The "war of the gods" really happened. The myths and legends are somewhat true. A world was destroyed and became the asteroids and comets. The men of Mars were men of war. The civilization before Adam was laid waste (Jeremiah 4:23-26). There is nothing new under the sun, not even advanced technology. There was a history before our history and it was never really forgotten.

For over thirty years, Patrick Cummins has been wandering the streets of Toronto, taking mugshots of its houses, variety stores, garages, and ever-changing storefronts. Straightforward shots chronicle the same buildings over the years, or travel the length of a block, facade by facade. Other sections collect vintage Coke signs on variety stores or garage graffiti. Full Frontal T.O. features over three hundred gorgeous photos of Toronto's messy urbanism, with accompanying text by master urban explorer Shawn Micallef. Patrick Cummins has photographed Toronto's built environment since 1978 and has worked as an archivist in Toronto since 1986. Shawn Micallef is the author of Stroll: Psychogeographic Walking Tours of Toronto and a senior editor at Spacing magazine.
