Description

Whoever governs this world? Are we supposed to take the lead, each of us on our own? The answer seems to be an invitation to play.Black humor, dark past, hectic present, all pulsating in Dark Street.Carola and Marcus are trapped between their long buried past and the present -- fiendish, delusive.But they also find themselves squeezed between current trends running in opposite directions. On the one hand the paleo trend toward everything simple, and mythical. On the other hand, the technological one, which permeates every aspect of modern life.They have epiphanies of values, and of old myths, either reversed or twinned, but mostly mixed up. Intriguingly, epiphanies seem to confuse them further. Their own gender identities get all mixed up, and their very passions as well. Everything in the contemporary world seems to be governed by the principle of uncertainty. The tendency toward total freedom brings this principle closer to mundane existence.Reversal, merge, rhyme, and twinning are present in the novel at the level of both plot and language. Carola's and Marcus's story lines gradually intertwine, for them to finally meet and indulge in a fascination with darkness. There is hope for them to find light side by side. Some kind of relief, enabled by understanding.The novel was inspired by my own quasi-creative boards online. I somehow wanted to understand my liking of them, trace back the psychology behind near-creative online activity. One such board gave the very title, DARXINATION, and all the heroine's recent paintings are actual such creations. In a world of confusion, Carola is trying to take up her passion again. Yet she is no longer sure whether it is painting, music, or the art of words, if not some new kind of art.Current themes tackled: gender identity, political correctness, self-actualization, self-teaching, childhood trauma, and the seeming supremacy of visual arts over the written word. Underlying, is the idea that music might conquer all.DARXINATION reads like an invitation to indulge in the pleasures of the present-day multi-leveled play.
