Lilith by J. R. Salamanca

By J. R. Salamanca

LILITH is a powerfully drawn portrait of innocence corrupted by means of evil-an evil so impressive, so appealing, so imaginatively conceived that even its violence and amorality have a beautiful attractiveness in their personal. this can be the evil of Lilith, a wildly deranged younger lady who creates for herself an odd paradise of fable, poetry, and keenness which she inhabits rather than the genuine international. Her global has its personal language, its personal philosophy, its personal song and artwork, all exquisitely developed and richly sensual of their layout. And it has its personal faith, a faith which calls for an insidious and dreadful kind of human sacrifice.
