In a remote village, a man suddenly becomes obsessed with spirals. As he collects more and more spirals, he is driven slowly insane, until he states that he is going to express the spiral with his body and is found the next day dead wound up in a circular tub. Upon his death, the danger of the spiral spreads and the real destruction begins. Will the mystery of the spiral ever be solved?

Personally I enjoyed this because it had a unique theme, interesting characters, extremely creepy art style. It is generally an odd book, if a very good one.
