Synopsis
Thirty-six cities. Thirty-six stories of obsession. From ancient Thebes to present day Berlin, these little portraits of humans superimposed on their suburban environment are corroding treats thrown together in a past-modern beaker, landmark tales of love in the metropolis. A round-the-world tour of craving and decadence.

Review
"Connell explores sexual obsession across time and geography with sparse, vivid language in this exotic and sensual thematic collection of prose poems." --Publishers Weekly
To say these stories are quirky wouldn't do them justice. They are weird, sometimes darkly humorous, wild, sexual, and unpredictable. --Kathryn Johnson, Historical Novels Review
[Connell] is a master of language, an endlessly inventive wordsmith who writes with a poet's eye and vision, so that each story is as remarkable and distinctive for the way in which it is told as for the content. --Peter Tennant, Black Static
Brendan Connell must be counted as one of the most unique and talented purveyors of horror/fantasy/unclassifiable fiction currently at work. --Fright.com
