Codex Seraphinianus

[Elisabeth Romberg]

I'm thinking Against the Day as well (which I just reread). All that stuff in London, Vibe, dark forces, railroads, ww1. (Isn't next true blood supposed to be about "the occult beginning of the American railroad" or something like that?)
One could make a case for the backdrop of Inherent Vice, maybe because I'm reading David McGovan's (of davesweb.com) "Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon - Laurel Canton, Covert Ops & The Dark Heart of the Hippie Dream" at the moment (it's great).
But in the end of the day you're probably right about V though.

Never read the codex, but I think I watched a documentary about it once, well..., a lecture, or some dude doing a talk, more like.
