Andrew Fekete
I will announce the publication of each chapter on Twitter.
Andrew Fekete was an artist, confessional writer and poet.  He died on the 31st May, 1986 at the age of thirty-three from a respiratory failure caused by Aids.  His central work, The Voyage into Night, comprises extracts from his diaries and essays, and leads us through the adolescent and adult life of a homosexual man.  Interleaved with this narrative are his poems; the story is  illustrated by his paintings and drawings.  
    Andrew Fekete suffered.  His confessions tell the story of his psychodrama: a conflict and a dialogue between a man and his shadow - a battle and a reconciliation between self-deception and enlightenment.  In The Voyage into Night, Andrew Fekete recounts his dreams, visions, hallucinations, relationships and inner experiences, as he conducts the reader on a profound journey from the Edge through Night into the Antinomian Divide.
