The phrase refers to his interest in digging deep into dark issues and
residing there while observing that society. He has a keen insight into
life from this angle, as if he were, possibiliy, a cinematographer
documenting life from the "inside" of Hades. Not all his writing is dark,
however. I have enjoyed his pieces, from many perspectives. As he enjoyes
quality jazz, humor, and the lifestyle of West Hollywood; it permeates his
writing.

I suppose he, like most people, has contraditions in his makeup. And, a
nebulous nature is his an aspect of his style.
