The superseding

More about the book

A Prague Nocturne - Set in Prague in the chaotic days following the Velvet Revolution, The Superseding is a story inside a story inside a story. Taking place over the course of one late autumn's night The Superseding is the story of a cast of eclectic expats trying in their own, often all too drunken ways to find narrative meaning for their own convoluted history as framed by the death of a friend, an escape from an asylum and the bizarre narrative of a rather twisted stranger who insists that the devil was crucified instead of Christ. Phantasmagoric and at times magically surreal, The Superseding is an unconventional work of late post modern literature, an exploration of failure, impossibility and senselessness, collapsing in on itself as it seeks to push its own boundaries.
