"Do you see? I am the orchard. We are the orchard. You, too, are the orchard, in a different way from I. It is from all of us that fruits are grown, taken, ground to pulp and left to turn to ash before the never-ending new." An illiterate scholar - The Keys - and a former priest - The Lantern - climb to the roof of a dying world. The megastructure that was once their home, and their prison, lies in a state of ruin that is overshadowed only by its enormity. Their quest? To reclaim their identities, lost amidst the fragments of a colonial behemoth. The task they've embraced is nebulous, born from a haze, yet its promise is as intoxicating as the sweetest fruit. Vengeance, marrow, and primal desires beckon.The Keys and The Lantern narrate their intertwined stories with unsettling familiarity. Both are entrenched in the gutters to the side of consensus reality. The Keys is comfortable in this state, while The Lantern grapples with his drifting perceptions. Together they form a camaraderie that blurs the lines between the grotesque and the beautiful.In this realm where distinctions between the human, the nonhuman, and the uncharted intersections blur, Crepuscular Angles is a celebration of bodies, an exploration of forbidden desires, and a paranoid confrontation with the draconian forces of an authoritarian corporate-state.A swirling tapestry of exquisite prose, Crepuscular Angles entwines readers in a narrative that challenges conventions, seizes the imagination, and leaves an indelible mark on the psyche. For those who relish delving into the uncharted territories of both mind and society, this surreal masterpiece is a journey not to be missed. Key Features:A vivid story of self-reflection and defiance, set against the backdrop of a crumbling, decayed city (and the lands below it).Unconventional characters who devour their madness in a system that has forsaken them.Fluid exploration of the self, perception, and primal desires, embracing both the beautiful and the grotesque.Homoerotic indulgence and daring acts of rebellion that break through the walls of a dystopian, corporate regime.An immersive experience that blurs the lines between reality and surrealism, perfect for lovers of thought-provoking fiction. Embark on a journey through the surreal depths of Crepuscular Angles, where the line between dreams and reality is as thin as a wisp of smoke. Prepare to be captivated, disturbed, and utterly enthralled.
