Katabasis

A rekindled friendship throws Micah into a world of shifting realities leaving him questioning what is real and what is not. Micah tries to navigate love, hate and self harm while being followed by a mysterious old man. The story takes from the claustrophobic ancient streets of Chichester out into the wilds of the weald where a prophetic tramp can peer through the vale into the unknown darkness beyond. Set in the early 1990's this book touches on youth subcultures of the time during the shift from New age Travellers goths and Skinheads to the emerging Rave scene. Micah traverses these cultures as he winds his way toward adulthood. But what is in his best friends attic and can he really talk to the dead?
