Description
Sole De Gasinis is a man haunted by the static ghost of his past, numbing his sorrow with cheap wine and channeling his dysphoria into grotesque, fractured art. When a cryptic, cosmic entity whispers from the abyss, promising to reshape his body into the man he has always fought to become, Sole accepts the devil’s bargain. The task is deceptively simple: rebuild the derelict church of his village. But this is no house of worship; it is the throne of a dormant, starving divinity.
As Sole labors under a feverish, divine compulsion, the barrier between his flesh and the architecture of the church begins to dissolve. The village—once a unified community—descends into a bloody schism of zealotry and paranoia as the building demands more than just mortar and stone. To achieve his metamorphosis, Sole must commune with the lingering, monstrous wreckage of a lost love, a boy who once claimed to be the vessel of a living god.
Kyle Wakefield crafts a visceral, haunting interrogation of identity and transformation. Within the shadow of the mountain of flesh, Sole must decide if the physical salvation he craves is worth the total annihilation of his soul.
