L'un des écrivains les plus influents de toute l'histoire des comics nous offre un ouvrage « merveilleux, brillant et souvent émouvant » (Neil Gaiman), qui nous emmène dans l'envers occulte et fantastique de la réalité. Avec son tout premier recueil de nouvelles, couvrant quarante années d'activité, Alan Moore nous présente une palette de personnages aussi variés qu'inoubliables qui découvrent - et dans certains cas, font et défont - la trame diverse et encore largement inexplorée de l'existence. Dans la première des nouvelles, la relation intime entre deux spécialistes de l'amour sorcier connaît de tragiques ramifications.

The foundations of Jewish law are under threat from the followers of a man called Jesus. These people have reached Damascus. They must be stopped. Saul, uncompromising and brutal, is the man for the job. But by the time Saul reaches Damascus, he is blind and in shock. What could have happened to him on that journey? How does a man react when his beliefs are turned upside down? Now calling himself Paul, can he convince his former enemies to trust him? Can he convince the world that Jesus's teachings are for everyone?

In the half a square mile of decay and demolition that was England's Saxon capital, eternity is loitering between the firetrap tower blocks. Embedded in the grubby amber of the district's narrative, among its saints, kings, prostitutes and derelicts; a different kind of human time is happening...

Dalla fantascienza all’horror, passando per il fantastico e la satira pungente, Alan Moore si destreggia sapientemente tra generi, stili e registri diversi, per dipingere quadri rischiarati da illuminazioni folgoranti, squarci di una realtà solo apparentemente inverosimile, che spesso riesce a superare anche le fantasie più sfrenate. Così due amanti improbabili si innamorano con conseguenze terribili in un lupanare frequentato da stregoni; il racconto dell’origine dell’universo rivela un esito catastrofico; gli spiriti esigono vendetta.

London has harbored many curious characters, but few more curious than the artist and visionary Austin Osman Spare (1886-1956). A controversial enfant terrible of the Edwardian art world, the young Spare was hailed as a genius and a new Aubrey Beardsley, while George Bernard Shaw reportedly said "Spare's medicine is too strong for the average man." But Spare was never made for worldly success and he went underground, falling out of the gallery system to live in poverty and obscurity south of the river.
