Aqueous - Paperback

Mind Bath's, Aqueous, is a conceptual literary-musical project - a psychedelic odyssey through the land of queer fantasy and mysticism. Part auto-fiction, part perverse hero's journey where an effervescent stardust boy cuts a hole in the sky and wakes up in a utopic new land, far removed from the oppressive dusty dominions of the violent world on Earth in search of healing and liberation.

Is it odd? Or is it God(dess consciousness)? N.E.W.T. arrives in Aqueous to a wisdom-dropping leather daddy daylily and a transcendental dog. Welcome home, to a new way of being, a universe of pleasure, a sanctuary where dreamers live in harmony with the natural world, guided by a looping energy blueprint from the 10 Days of Celestial Bodies. Only on Day of Moon can one remember what came before. Like a flower turns to face the sun, N.E.W.T. faces the shadows of the unconscious mind to plant imaginative seeds of hope.

From radical queer joyous faerie woo to an underground darling's music career, abuse of power to vignettes of a sex angel, Aqueous is healing text. Enriched by a cast of rebellious artists and sublime outsiders in collective search of liberating the core wound in every gay inner child, Aqueous is an evocative and profound meditation on the fragments of a world of trauma and the resilience, humour, and self-interrogation required to see beyond it - right through to the heart.
