A dark and latent reality, not accepted by genteel society. An underworld of primordial images and racial memory, an unwanted peek into the darkness of the past, and maybe a glimpse at some not too distant future.Even today, as man struggles against the beast within, between the light and the darkness in his soul, he sometimes finds that the darkness can be strong, and even the light often verges on shadow, sometimes crossing the boundary to do battle, sometimes winning, sometimes losing to the abyss.Long before Robin Goodfellow traversed the forests of Shakespeare, the creatures of imagery and form portrayed here were tangible and real. They still exist today.The Book of Night is about the dark side - our fear of and fascination with the unknown; of things macabre; of things done in secret; of things done in the dark. Death, destruction, loss, pain, these are all within its domain, and if you choose to bear your soul to the night sky and feel its breath, you too will know its mettle, and evoke the images of this separate reality.Fresh voices and the wisdom of departed masters are both represented for your delight, so please do not hesitate to discover them anew.Come. The Night awaits.
