Orpheus' Loot (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781006011580)

Looking over your shoulder to the estranged past of having migrated to another country can be treacherous. Orpheus' Loot explores this transition with abandon and wonder. The excessive delights of Oslo provide the territory for a collection of predictive and confidential writings. Hughes is a soothsayer and mentalist. His melancholic impulses, capricious humour, and mercurial encounters with an array of peculiar characters are the catalysts that enable him to loot the nature of rootlessness, addiction, and dislocation. Love freezes in the winter nights and melts mysteriously away in the heatwaves and hangovers. Peace of mind is thwarted by doubts and derangements. There are buried treasures to savour here if you can find yourself exiled on a new map.
