From Hell discussion

Historical noir fiction’s undiscovered masterpiece.
For no noir ever had a metaphysic this vast.
Its who- transfigures unto whydunnit.
It’s horror knives greatly gores.

More horror merges historical to gain a novel genre,
this greatest of graphic novels is sans but sight and psyche sync.

A conspiracy within Pax Victoriana’s prosperity,
mix occult mystery, which awes even the initiated.

And tho the Man is hated.
There’s this synchronicity history,
that flourishes its noir-ness to floridity.
If ye ain’t imperialistic nor western lit inclined.
