The idea of this book is to emphasize - on the example of analysing select emblematic pieces of Victorian and post-Victorian poetry - that the Past matters as it informs the mind about its present state and about actuality in the general sense of the word.

Светът извън пределите на тесните бетонни стени изчезва, остава само мракът: в тунела и в човешката душа. Какво се случва с нас, когато обстоятелствата ни изтръгват от обичайния ни живот? Когато всички опори рухват и оставаме насаме с кошмарите си? Тази антиутопия е не само история на оцеляването, но и огледало на сбъркания свят, в който живеем, психологическа драма, която изследва границите на възможното и невъзможното.
