Excerpt from Alan Moore's blurb for his upcoming novel Jerusalem to be published in September. You can read the complete text here.
[...] An opulent mythology for those without a pot to piss in, through the labyrinthine streets and pages of Jerusalem tread ghosts that sing of wealth and poverty; of Africa, and hymns, and our threadbare millennium. They discuss English as a visionary language from John Bunyan to James Joyce, hold forth on the illusion of mortality post-Einstein, and insist upon the meanest slum as Blake’s eternal holy city. Fierce in its imagining and stupefying in its scope, this is the tale of everything, told from a vanished gutter. [Alan Moore]

ReplyDeleteYes I know about "Monster" but... Moore wrote few pages so it's basically a Wagner's work.
Yes, Monster only featured one chapter (four pages) by Moore.
