He believes he has indulged in everything the world can offer. It takes us on a journey of the forever thrill-seeking Frank Cotton, who has submitted his will and initiation into further explorations of self-sensory pleasure. The story focuses on a mystical puzzle box called Lemarchand box – the movie calls it the Lament Configuration box – that opens a gateway to unforeseen worlds most notably the labyrinth, known as the Leviathan. The novella itself retains the gory, visceral style that Barker introduced in his series of collected short stories, The Books of Blood and Damnation Game. After the success of the movie, the book was re-released as a standalone title by Harper-Collins in 1988 along with an audiobook recorded by Clive Barker and published by Simon & Schuster Audioworks.
