About this title

Synopsis

PALLADIUM

Rights sold to Germany (Ullstein) and Czech Republic (Euromedia)

"Palladium is a factual novel, it's my story. The story of a man who, in the space of a few days and for no obvious reason, ends up paralysed from head to toe, unable to move a single muscle, robbed of all his senses and any means of communication with the outside world.
Then began a journey through the furthest reaches of human existence, territories ruled over by fear, violence, death, pain and sex... because illness is like stepping through the looking glass, a gateway to other worlds, a place of prostitutes and demons, of men living like vegetables with bodies like birds, of nurses and firework makers thrown together in a whirlwind of hate and debauchery. A manic, terrifying world: my world.
Palladium is my account of this crossing, an expedition to the land of the dead and through the subconscious. Palladium delves into the very roots of pain and literature, to a place where our life force itself is huddled alongside the myriad different stories it has to tell."
