Sacrament

In this tightly plotted dark fantasy, a man who witnessed intentional extinctions as a boy grows up to document—and fight to stop—the loss of species. Using a "Russian doll" structure of nested stories, Clive Barker explores humanity, identity, and the experience of being a gay man in a world defined by aging and death. It is a vivid, melancholy, yet ultimately hopeful examination of what it means to love in a world where all things must pass.
