Description
Set against the backdrop of post-war Europe, Exquisite Corpse is a complex and intriguing tale of investigation and obsession. In 1940s and 50s London, Paris and Munich, Caspar delves into the darker corners of art, psychology and human desire.
The story follows his quest to uncover the truth behind a vanishing woman, navigating surreal landscapes of hypnagogic imagery and the world of Nazi art. With each new discovery, Caspar's own perceptions are challenged, leading him down a path of self-discovery and revelation.
