Description
In Graves, Damien, a male nurse and self-styled 'thanatophile', is in love with death in its purer and more ideal form. However, as he casts around for some authentic way to defy the void of modernity, his thanatophilia is swiftly and insidiously corrupted. Scavenging what 'materials' he can, he works in isolation like a reverse Doctor Frankenstein, wishing to understand the secrets of death, not life, in order to break the narrative power of science over the modern mind. Set against the backdrop of anomie-drenched 21st-century London, Graves, Quentin S. Crisp's second major novel, is a work of Gothic horror that confronts the 'hard problem' of consciousness in a world where it is easier to believe in artificial intelligence than human intelligence.
