This comic fantasy is about the bits of the nineteenth century that are still with us, a reverse steampunk. One of the chief characters is a gypsy dachshund, named Django, who trots the globe with an unemployed scholar of Victoriana. Traveling through Roma mentalism to New Age and beyond, they seek a dowsing weaver/healer and flee fashion terrorists. Humming in the background is a mass-murder mystery running from Jack the Ripper through the holocaust toward the apocalyptic terror that might come. Imagine THE DA VINCI CODE’s Robert Langdon using THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY to track down “The Emperor’s New Clothes.”
