About this series
1888: A young prostitute opens a gift from a painter and discovers van Gogh's bloody ear.
2042: The inventor of gene-tweaking buys a desiccated ear which he believes holds the key to bottling human genius.
Vinny lives on an isolated island and paints. Scientists watch him, waiting to see if his artistic genius or his latent schizophrenia will manifest first. He's been cloned to be an artist; he's surrounded only by things that stimulate his art. Until he discovers rock and roll…
The island is full of secrets. Vinny is hiding a guitar cut out of paper. His surrogate parents are hiding their anger and shame. And in an underground lab lurks a far more dangerous secret, a warped, wrathful angel that longs for freedom.
As these secrets explode into the public eye, Vinny must discover what it means to be true to himself when he's been born to be someone else.

1
Flora is missing, and I have to find her. She won't answer my calls, and I'm terrified that she doesn't love me anymore. Maybe she's ignoring me because I'm a creep. It's probably not because she's been abducted by lizards in suits; they only exist in my paranoid delusions. Probably. I have to warn you, I might not be the most reliable of narrators. If you come with me to look for Flora, you might help keep me sane. Or you might end up in my world instead. I warn you now, this book contains loud noises and flashing images which may upset you. It also leads down unpleasant corridors in your brain. Please read responsibly. Written with heart and insight, this darkly comic novella delves deep into the lived experience of schizophrenia as we follow the narrator through the pulsating city of Schizotopia, where the streets are a vast neural network, the buildings are complex data stores, the flickering lights are messages shooting between synapses, and the other pedestrians are thoughts: some half-finished, others fully fleshed out, each of them unique and complicated. At the heart of the city, in the penthouse of the Oblongata Building where the mastermind hides, lies the answer to Flora's disappearance, and—with luck and courage and the right medication—the key to bringing her home.
