Mr.V.

After the success of the first edition, Mr. V. returns, richer, darker, and more refined. In this second edition, Rubèn Cottenjé explores the boundaries between autofiction, mysticism, and vampiric desire. In Bruges, from Lucifernum to salons, nightclubs, and hidden rituals, a web of encounters, obsessions, and seductive tensions unfolds. Jean-Baptiste moves through a world of desire, decadence, and spiritual shadows, where Milan is only one of the figures who attract, challenge, and unsettle him. Vampires do not appear as monsters, but as aristocratic archetypes of longing, beauty, and eternal hunger, mirrors of what people secretly acknowledge yet rarely dare to name. This edition includes reproductions of artworks by Gilbert Retsin, which visually deepen the dark and sensual universe of the story. Mr. V. seduces, and does not let go.
