Publisher's Synopsis
This is the fifteenth book that McLean has written about his "muse" Emma. As always, there is much kink, quite a few ghosts, but also much influence from Lyotard & intensity, Deleuze & Guattari & becoming beast, Deleuze & Nietzsche & the selective eternal return, mental illness, anarchy, & the Dark Mothers & their fire - Kali Maa & Tiamat in particular. Deviation brings realisation, asserts McLean, a proud pervert, & much of his current content is a savage attack on the idea of the coherent narcissistic self in favour of the dissolved self, fire & intensity, the death of meaning. Only the scream is of any perduring value.
