Publisher's Synopsis
The Little Book of Latterday Victorians is a surreal comedic adventure about an incredible moustache, outrageous identity theft, nasty little schemes and a story that can be changed from the inside out by a devilishly casual villain. Set in a Dickensian London where people believe lamp posts can be hypnotised, we meet shy Nostil Vandra a museum worker who uses his impressive facial hair to quantify all life on Earth, his new best friend and unknown nemesis, Knostrell Vandahh - member of the Society for The Privileged Sneaky and theft of Nostil's entire identity, Nora Kiburian - a brilliant Hungarian scientist in hiding who uses mathematics as an assault weapon, a dog named Zeus, an unreliable narrator and some crocodiles.Filled with an unforgettably egocentric villain, strange magic and mixed metaphors, The Little Book of Latterday Victorians is exactly the kind of thing you'd expect the secret idiot nephew of Douglas Adams, Neil Gaiman and Charles Dickens.Illustrated frequently by the author.
