The Peacock Escritoire

"  Is less a simple gathering of fine stories and more of an homage 
to the many different copes, dalmatics and mosaics of the Old World. 
Think about it as a fabulous wayward Exposition Internationale catalogue of epiphanies, 
wonders, sacred mysteries and veiled heresies.
This is the latest collection of short stories by Mark Valentine."
"The man is a visionary. He has taken a few sentences of "The Amber Cigarette" 
and conjured a whole world of myth and metamorphosis. Extraordinary."

Mark Valentine,  about the artwork
