A short, confused tale of a long night on Dante's Joy. All who have sense sleep through this night in a drugged sleep that guarantees they will not awake in the night. And maybe not in the day either.
For those who dare to face this occasional night - IF you survive (and that's a mighty big if) and are still sane, you will never be the same again. (

Epigraph

Dedication

First words

On Earth, it would be a fearful thing to see a man chasing down the street after the skin from a human face, a thin layer of tissue blown about like a piece of paper by the wind.
