In his debut novel, rock legend Pete Townshend examines themes of modern anxiety and madness through the intertwined lives of a London family and their associates, spanning two generations. The story features characters such as a reclusive artist, an art dealer experiencing visions, and a young composer haunted by hallucinations, all exploring intense passions, artistic pursuits, and personal turmoil. Conceptualized as an opera, the novel delves into mythic and operatic themes, creating a layered meditation on creativity, mental states, and the complexities of human relationships.
