Nilos, an amateur entomologist, is at odds in the human world. He wants nothing more than a life of peace and solitude, but instead he finds himself perpetually uprooted, moving from one shared accommodation to another.
Armed only with bare essentials and his treasured collection of preserved insects, Nilos moves into this latest houseshare. From the outset he strives to avoid all contact with the other tenants and retreats into the dark sanctuary of his room. That is until Guy, a charismatic and outgoing new tenant, moves in and enforces a dynamic within the house that is impossible for Nilos to ignore.
Will Nilos resist being duped by the contrived charms of Guy, or will he, like the other housemates, be seduced by his alluring lifestyle? Either way, Nilos is about to learn what it is to ENJOY.

Thought Provoking!
This book is vastly more than it presents itself to be. It is a cold, brutally honest observation of the human condition. Presented in a very honest straightforward way, it takes you on a journey through the mind and the way we think and perceive life. It is a very cleverly layered piece of provocative literature. In some ways I would say its close to being a masterpiece, certainly a very memorable moving story about mental illness and the struggle we all have coming to terms with being part of a so called civilized world. I dont want to say anymore just read it!
