"The Asylum: Wayward for Victorian Girls"
by Emilie Atumn
Here's my fave pic of Emilie reading her book.
Yes! Emilie had her personal copy in PINK!
These next photos are of my copy
of the book...
This is how I have my book in my vitrine...
This is truly an overwhelming book.
Emilie is an extraordinary soul,
she can take you so deep into
a world you've never known.
She can give you hope & take it away,
you will see the light in the darkest places.
Being such a limited made copies of this book,
at a cost of around $75 plus shipping,
it's easily a $100 book but the real
price is inside of it's pages.
The truth & soul of this gorgeous,
Victorian, Steampunk looking
pages are priceless!!!
I know some Plague Rats cannot afford
a copy of this book, nor has Emilie Autumn
been able to travel to where all her fans
live. So, I will be giving out a copy of
this book, completely sealed
to one lucky PR any where in the world.

Emilie Sold her pink excerpt book a few years back before the full book was released, So that's not actually her personal copy anymore, nor is it the full book... Just thought I would say something.. :P Super Madly awesome that you are giving away a copy to some very lucky PR though!! <3
Her music has done so much for me in battling my own illnesses that I think reading her book and understanding her life could lead me to understand more of myself.
I really miss reading this book. I gave my copy to a friend of mine because she had no way to get it. I miss holding the book and reading it because it gave me so much courage to just keep hanging on. EA and this book has been there for me through my darkest days and now I want to be able to read it during some of my brightest. I can't afford the book because I have a young son and barely make ends meet
Because this book is so precious. It has done so much. I want to read it, and then share it with my friends who want to read it and which I've met because of EA, and after that, send it to other PR's who are not able to buy the book. and add some little gifts for them <3 Make the love flow and help those that need to feel better. Stay strong PR's xx
Why I need this book..
It sounds like a clichee but when I first heard about Emilie Autumn I didnt realize how much it was related to my illness and life...although I never been to a mental hospital, I attempted suicide a few times...but this should not be my life story...since then and since I heard of EAs book, it was my deepest wish to learn more about her story. Unfortunately I dont have enough money to buy the book, and in the luck of the PR community I was able to read the first three chapters, and I need the book to know how it continues!
Hello!First of all I'm going to thank you for giving others the chance to have this book =)
When I first started listening to Emilie's music,I was attracted to the feminist content in her lyrics,and the beatiful darkness in her songs,turning sadness and suffering into possitive feelings when I listen to them.I think all women are strong and beatiful,but some of them don't seem to realize it.Emilie does and shows it,that's why I admire her.
I never had the chance to read her book,only saw a few videos of her reading it on Youtube.But the little I heard about it,made me fall in love with it.She's such an amazing writer,and I love how she mixes her real life with fantasy,giving us a beautiful and very interesting story to read.Unfortunately,I'll never have a chance to get her book in my country (Argentina) and I can't buy it online.So,whether I win it or not,I appreciate you giving me (and all the PRs) the chance to have it.
Well,thanks for reading!(Sorry if it's got too long,haha).
Well my name is Luigi, i live in Chile, Southamerica & I really want this book because since EA have gave me an Asylum Cellnumber in her last show in Chile now i'm part of The Asylum... she have shown me so much things through her art. Everytime i have the opportunity to spread the plague i always do my best to explain the people why i love her & her work so much, even i'm one of the plague rats who's always posting information about her work in 'Emilie Autumn Chile' as 'W1518: Luigiberto'.I spend a lot of time just spreading the plague. I know all of this sounds a bit psycho but there are a lot of reasons behind this point, personal reasons, realife reasons...
My last work in my school was a whole musical in a real theater, the musical explained the relation between EA's childhood,TAFWVG (which i know only a bit through her songs & web-spoilers) & that placed in the real world.
Obviously Emilie Autumn isn't my whole life, but have a very important place in my mind, my heart & in my life. So i really want this book to know the whole story that is behind her performances & songs that have accompanied me since the first time i discovered them. And at least but not the less important, the book is too expensive for me geographically.
xoxo
W1518: Luigiberto
I'll try to keep this short...
A dear friend of mine introduced me to EA's Opheliac album and I was sold with the first song. Her music has helped me write, get through hard days and good days the same... From what I understand of the book's synopsis and the reviews, I've been dying to get my hands on this book. Long story short, she's an inspiration to me for so many reasons, and I can't imagine this book diminishing her in any way.
First of all I think it is marvelous that you are willing to give your copy away.
Emilie has done so much for me in my life; she gave me the courage to accept myself for who I am and forget what everyone else thinks. My family doesn't accept homosexuals so Emilie gave me the strength to keep living day by day and to keep my head up! My identity may be hidden from them but she gave me hope that one day my life will be better. Even if she is asexual. My life is such a miserable mess right now and I don't have much to look forward to when I wake up, some days I feel like I never want to wake up to what I live through. I live in a town where there are no jobs and I have ALWAYS wanted this little ray of light for my very own so I can have something to smile about. It'd be like having a little piece of Emilie in my daily life.
Hoping one day I can share my love for Emilie to others like me who need, I could share her wisdom.
I think, this all Emilie-thing is something like 'I believe in God, so if I pray, I can do anything'. Emilie is my goddess. I would do anything to her. Not because she's she, but because she's Emilie Autumn, who made Enchant and Opheliac and TAFWVG and FLAG. And I'm very thankful that she is to me, she is to us. Because I'm a Plague Rat and I'm proud of it.

I need to win this book, because there's none being sold in Brazil and paying the book price plus the shipping will be expensive as fuck, to much cupcakes to be licked for this money. Beside who wouldn't want owning a piece of your private Asylum? I do want it, and I'm giving my hardest for it, Emilie is such an amazing creature that gives many power to keep on through a though life, and I also want to be a part of her army. Even if I'm only a boy, I can still fight like a girl.
yo lo quierooooo amo a Emilie Autumn<3
!!!
This lonely soul would love to win this lovely book because Emilie is such an amazing soul who inspires me everyday. I've always wanted to read her book but I don't have money...I know I'm not writing so much like everyone else but I hope I can win this great opportunity to have Emilie Autumn's Asylum For the Wayward Victorian Girls book...it would mean a lot to me. <3
I need this book because i want to read Emilie's stories, i love her music and i'm sure the book will be amazing too, like her music!
As a designer, I am very interested in the world of Emilie Autumn. The way she manages to create a whole context. I understand it has to do with your life, its history and that makes it more complex and interesting.
Personally I really like the Victorian era and Baroque music. My pseudonym is Waldteufel Emilie Bach, Emilie is just coincidence, I did not know Miss Autumn at the time.
Well, obviously I could not get the book and have it in my hands I would be quite rewarding.
Hello...
First of all, I want to thank you for this opportunity.
Due to economical and political reasons, not only I can't afford a copy of this needed precious book, but in the case I could my government won't let me have it because all commerce with USA is closed...
I don't know if I deserve it... Deep inside of me I feel the need for this.
Not only to learn and understand more about Emilie Autumn, but also to search for some understanding for myself...
I've recently been trough the deepest feeling of loneliness in my entire life... I felt a pain so hard in my very core, my very soul... that it was like i was the only living thing inside a black and deep universe, with this heavy pain in my chest that made me fall and fall... in a black and vast universe... and all i prayed was to stop falling... to touch the ground and finally die so this feeling would go away... But it wuldn't happen so i thought i'd make it happen... and then i did things to myself that i'm ashamed to mention. I'm not proud. At all...
The next morning I thought of asking for help... but i didn't want to worry any of my brothers or my parents... besides no one would understand
In the song 306 Emilie sings "my reasons to live where my reasons to die..."
I know now that, not only i admire her for being the great and wonderful woman she is and a breath-taking musician... i also feel that someone out there knows what it is to be someone like... this...
I discovered her music and many talents a few years ago and i truly felt i could count on at least one person in the world to understand me...
Again, i don't believe i deserve this book... But i do believe that whoever wins it will have a unique gem and will feel as complete as i would if i could have it...
Thank you very much.
And thank you for reading this.
I believe i deserve the book because i believe in the words wroten in it, i believe in the feelings also.
I believe it's more than just a book, more like an idea, an idea that i really would like to have.
You know, I haven't been a fan of Emilie for too long, a bit more than a year... but having met her and her music has changed my life and I just can't put into words what I feel when I listen to her music. Emilie's music and the world she created for us.. she gave us a home and I am so grateful! I've known PRs, found very good friends and took part in projects (like the collaborative FLAG Video and the Videogame)...
Now the only thing I feel is missing is the book. I want to understand the whole story. I'm so intrigued and I really want this book~ It's the most generous thing of you to give it away, since I cannot afford it and living in Germany makes it more difficult to get a copy.
I would love to win this book. I've been wanting one forever but recently both my parents have had job losses, and we can't afford anything extra, let alone something that expensive. As a young writer myself, reading such an artistic and poetic book would be extraordinarily inspiring. Good luck fellow plague rats <3

I have grow up with Emilie. I love her for the very first time i hear her voice & since then, my philosophy of life are so much stronger like a woman. i have never had the chance of know her in concert or being a member of the Asylum with a cellnumber, so getting this book would be.. like my own bible. If i had this awesome masterpiece, i´d promise to spread the plague and get revenge of the world, By the sword i swear. Cause i FIGHT LIKE A GIRL! Tea time in Chile.
I don't think I need it desperately, but in my country, Argentina, the imported things are very expensive, but in another's places aren't - that's because I wanted this book. Here is very difficult to buy one, is very expensive, and I will share the book with another's Argentinian PR's who can't get it.
I love Emilie Autumn, but I felt I needed to help to who can't buy it (I, right now, can't)
Hi! :) I want Emilie's book, because I've been longing to read for like 3 years, since I started to love her, and having the chance to read what she thinks, the way she perceives her life and her experiences, would be a gift for me. She has done a lot for me, she's one of the reasons I keep going on. I've never been to an Emilie's show (even when she has come to my city), but being able to read (and admire :P) the book would tear that all away and make me happy for life. Thank you for reading this(:
I would love to have this book because I feel, probably like many other PRs, that Emilie's story is a lot like my own, and nothing compares to an actual physical book in your hands. I've never read the book before but I've always wanted to, because every book is an escape to a different world, but I feel like this one could actually help me understand myself better as well.
I think it's brilliant you offer others that might be less fortunate than yourself the chance to own a copy of the book, fair play to you for that!
I believe I need to win this giveaway because I tried to buy it once but couldn't cause I don't have the money. I really love Emilie and her songs and find her life history amazing and I really want to know more about it.
Please <3
Wow, I've got to say, this is super generous of you.
I've been longing to own the book since it was first released, but the cost of the book itself plus shipping has always meant that it's been an impossible dream.
I've heard so many things about the story; how in depth and complicated it is, and how personal it is to Emilie. To be able to read what she's written about how she feels, and draw parallels from it in my own life, and know that she feels like that too, would be so much to me.
Thank you for offering this chance to the plague rats across the world, we all appreciate it greatly. x
When I was younger I battled with depression, self harm, and suicide. I still deal with these things. But I remember finding Emillie's music and how suddenly I wans't alone in the world anymore. There was somebody else out there who understood me.
Then I found the rats and then it wasn't just me and Ms. Autumn anymore. It was all these other lovely souls and I, wasn't cured of my illness, but I wasn't alone in it anymore. I wasn't sititng in ym room in the dark anymore. I had people who understood that.
Then I found out that she wrote this book and I did everything in my power to get my hands on it but I've never been able to. EVER! I started saving up at age 13 and when I'd have enough money, it'd either rgo up in price or be sold out. I'm 18 now. I've been trying to read this book for six years now. I just want to see what she has to say. I want to to finally hold it in my hands and read it. I want to have that feeling I had so long ago from EA's work, that feeling of not being alone in my metnal illness and that I'm not just some crazy girl. I feel like by reading her book it'd do that for me. It'd give me sotmhing to cling too and remind me that I'm not alone in my suffering while I'm out trying to live in the world after I graduate in a few weeks. Please consider me for the book. I feel like it'd really help me and give me that safe feeling I had all those years ago when I first found EA in my darkness.
I bough a copy of the book for my friend as a birthday present. EA means a lot to her, and as most of EA’s fans she is battling with a mental illness of her own, and I could see how the book truly helped her like most of EA’s music. Unfortunately she lost the book and a lot of the music in a fire, and neither she nor I have the money to buy a new copy of the book. Her birthday is coming up soon; so it would be wonderful if I could receive a copy on her behave.
