“Miggs, a dissolute teen, is forced to work at the old brick boarding house at Hieronymus Street, an emporium where oddities come to die.The Oddities, a horror novella manuscript, is both critique and response to the War of Ideas in today’s digital age. A world in which every and all ideologies can be mass disseminated at a previously unprecedented rate, with people increasingly pulling towards the farthest ends of the political and ideological binary is a terrifying world. The Oddities explores these ideas and their points of conflict and offers a solution. ”
