His mother is dead, so little Oliver Twist is brought up in the workhouse. Beaten and starved, he runs away to London, where he joins Fagin’s gang of thieves. By chance he also finds good new friends – but can they protect him from people who rob and murder without mercy?

This is the story of four friends – Toad, Rat, Mole and Badger. Rat loves the river. Mole is often afraid. Badger likes to stay at home. But Toad is always looking for new adventures – and some of his ideas are dangerous.

Scrooge is a cold, hard man. He loves money, and he doesn’t like people. He really doesn’t like Christmas. But when some ghosts visit him, they show him his past life, his life now, and a possible future. Will Scrooge learn from the ghosts? Can he change?

John Kennedy Toole, autor slavného Spolčení hlupců, napsal Neonovou bibli již v šestnácti letech, vydání se však dočkala až dvacet let po jeho tragické smrti. Jde o zvláštní a temnou knihu, v níž se na rozdíl od Spolčení hlupců jen občas zablesknou groteskní náznaky a satirická nálada. Působivý baladický příběh je umocněn jednoduchým jazykem a naprosto přímočarým proudem vyprávění. Bilingvní vydání.
