Princess of Chaos... This is a tale about a protagonist with small-scale regal ambitions to dominate. It deals with chaos, mayhem, anti-order, and system-wrecking, as well as being a document to bullying, emotional violence and self concern at all costs. A sweet girl who suffers badly in the upbringing stakes, beginning life in poverty and neglect, comes to adulthood bearing features that reflect her origins. It is a tale of deceit, addiction and crime, of one poor soul's careless disregard for the law and for any semblance of order and decency that may attempt to insert themselves into her daily existence. If there was to be a movie made from its content it could aptly be titled Princess Chaos.
