‘Incurable’

Nina Antonia

Originally published in 2018 by Strange Attractor Press, ‘Incurable’ sold out virtually overnight. Curated by myself & featuring an introductory biography of the ill-fated Lionel Johnson ‘Pale as wasted golden hair’ brings back to life the most reclusive of Poets of the decadent 1890’s. ‘Incurable – The Haunted Writings of Lionel Johnson’ is now available as a superior P.O.D via Amazon in the UK & US so why not mistreat yourself to a copy of the doomy decadent dandy’s literary melancholia. Best read by candlelight with an absinthe chaser. (PS, Lionel also introduced his special friend, Lord Alfred Douglas to Oscar Wilde, and lived to rue the day.)
