This used to be the "Neil Gaiman in Manila" Event Website, but has now morphed into a local Gaiman fan blog, and soon, hopefully it will eventually evolve into a true fan site by Pinoy Gaiman fans. :)

Viriconium

In the Nocturne mailing list, Andrew wrote that Neil mentioned Manila in his introduction to "Viriconium":

Hi, everyone.

In his introduction to the new Bantam-Spectra TPB of
M. John Harrison's Viriconium, Gaiman has this to say
in the penultimate paragraph:

"And it seems to me that each city I visit now is an
aspect of Viriconium, that there is an upper and a
lower city in Tokyo and in Melbourne, in Manila and in
Singapore, in Glasgow and in London, and that the
Bistro Californium is where you find it, or where you
need it, or simply what you need."


Thanks for the heads up, Andrew! Viriconium is available in trade paperback at Fully Booked for Php768.
