What if you could live forever in a fantasy world of your own making alongside your soulmate lover doing anything you pleased?
Put it another way: What’s stopping you?
The Lost Place plunges the reader into the world of Truelove and Shell, two lovers who inhabit a bohemian urban enclave called ‘the Cross’ in an unnamed city at an indeterminate time.
They lead an idle and idyllic life, spending their days and nights as they wish amidst the cafés and cabarets of the Cross.
But… is it all too good to be true? Time slips and jumps, skips a beat; people, events, and places shift; identities merge and separate; things are forgotten and then remembered all wrong; the Cross keeps turning on its axis, turning into something new, something different. Things are never the same from one day to the next. It is unclear what is real, and what is merely fiction. Perhaps this is what it really means to live your dreams…?
The Lost Place is a baroque romance, a surrealist puzzle, a little figment of a life we might once have led…
