A propos de ce titre

Présentation de l'éditeur

It is madness to accept that what we have already seen is all that exists. That seeking a life outside of what is considered to be normal is traitorously deviant. Behind every pair of kohl-rimmed eyes, a soul resides, crying out for recognition and tolerance in a society that is blinkered by averages, driven by consumerism and faithless. Obscurity can be a killing thing, or it can take you to great heights. And sometimes, a secret can change your life. A surreal conversation with a man wearing a long black leather coat in a subway, late one night, causes Christopher Ward to learn of the existence of such a secret. But he is led on an exasperating trail of vague allusions and maddening dead ends, which nearly causes his death, in his decision to follow the white rabbit down the hole. Dr Anna Mitchell is a 'good girl', who has never once been allowed to stray from the path of achieving career success, a good solid marriage and a suburban life with white picket fences. But the stifling rigidity of this course makes her realise that she wants to change her life, and she begins to search for an identity and purpose that permits her silent feelings of alienation from society to be released. Tentatively exploring her inexplicable attraction to her inner darkness, she starts on her journey to become a Goth, and is completely unprepared for the ferocity of the backlash. What do you do when you realise that you have reached the ceiling of your current existence? You look for Velvedorum.
