Reviews

“This vertiginous story brings us face to face with the terror of what it means to confront the self in all its dark complexity. The narra-tor’s journey is both harrowing and rich with philosophical implica-tions. Gaze will draw you in and keep you thinking for a long, long time.”

It’s called a psychomanteum. A room entirely lined with mirrors. It was once used to channel the spirits of the dead, though in our day and age, people have forgotten it. Gaze is told through the journal of someone who has rediscovered this unique device. By methodically documenting his fascination with the contraption, this person discovers and allows us to see that mirrors still hold tight their deepest mysteries and secrets. And uncovering them soon becomes all that matters.It’s called a psychomanteum. A room entirely lined with mirrors.
