Nathan Hassall leads the way where few are willing to go, deep into the mind's Dark Sanctuary. All-knowing doctors, schizophrenic demons and apocalyptic visions are all part of the process within the confines of flesh. Once entered, there is no way to unlearn the awakened chimeras of the self.

The Dead go to Heaven. There is no Us and Them. Stop causing trouble - fall in line, switch on, plug in, put the blinkers on. Are you paying attention? Of Gods and Gallows is the third collection of poetry and prose from Nathan Hassall. Fraught with the insecurities and morbid fantasies of an aspiring creative mind, this collection deals with the battle between the precarious nature of faith and the certainties of science, one which tussles in the dormant vacuum of our collective subconscious. Of Gods and Gallows endeavours to resurrect the inquietude which festers in the psyche of every individual; daring its reader to explore the labyrinth of the human condition to find - ultimately - the dark fragments of their own consciousness.

Nathan Hassall's second book, A Conscious Void, is a brand new journey for both the writer and reader alike. Leafing through the pages of prose, poetry, and occasional philosophy, we sail into work that has brought great challenges along the way; with heartfelt empathy and care, each piece has been tirelessly crafted to the smallest of details so that no meaning or message is ever lost. Godless space and time, the bitter-sweet Heaven of therapy, the undeniable hypocrisy of our most deeply held ideals; all is part of the extensive collage of questions and answers that appear in A Conscious Void. With surrealism, humour and cold cynicism, Nathan Hassall has created a very modern approach to poetry and prose, and perhaps most importantly - in an age when our greatest thinkers fear that Philosophy is dead - an accessible but daringly unique way to keep our minds from a dull, technology-induced slumber. Read between the lines, between the lines we draw in our minds and are too fearful to cross.
