The End of the World

Set foot in the real outside with Valentine, a young man pushed out the nest by his doting, deceitful parents eager to get their freak on. Completely sheltered all his life, Valentine must find his way with meager sums and a head full of bookish, nonsense education. It’s early days with just two episodes out, but I am loving the frightful Edward Gorey-esque world ensuing through childish eyes, and the unexpected, mature content that had me guffawing. Is Valentine prepared to witness his mother’s “gentle head bobbing,” much less the shifting shadows that awaits him at The End of World hotel?
