Fashion, photography, futurism, models and martial arts. All this and a demon from hell-lock your doors and snuggle in for the night. Daniel Couto's novel, Solipsum will have you up reading until morning. It's ten years just past now and Charlie, a beautiful young woman in New York City lands the job of a lifetime-working as a photo assistant on a highly experimental advertising campaign that features the world's hottest models. But one of these models is not what he seems-he takes frequent trips to Hell and he's got one hell of an agenda. Couto's imagination is a wild ride filled with characters that jump off the pages to visit your dreams (and nightmares)-stunning models, shark-like superagents, ninja assassins and demons dressed to the nines. Dry black humor, a deeply erotic undercurrent and a razzle-dazzle plotline all lead to a fantastic conclusion. Daniel Couto is a photographer, director and producer. His latest projects include a reality-based television program called Catfight and a photography-based art show, Naked in the House, that airs on Canadian networks. His future plans include directing feature films and he is currently working on the sequel to Solipsum. Mr. Couto lives in Toronto, Canada. Solipsum is his first novel.
