Along the way, he meets a cast of characters who offer him guidance and support, including a wise old philosopher and a kind-hearted young woman named Elfie. But as Felix's obsession with Geraldine grows, he finds himself increasingly isolated and alone, and must ultimately face the consequences of his actions.A Modern Mephistopheles is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of human nature and the struggle between good and evil.
