- Summary:
- "The Via Dolorosa of David J. MacKinnon, disciple of Mary Magdalene, Gilles de Rais, Barabas, the low latin poets, ekstasis and the levitating saints. Survivor-in-exile of leftist purges, dictators both tinpot and tyrannical, chronically plagued by Cassandra's curse. Now bidding the ancestors to inflict hery, a poxy wind of Old Testament revenge upon the colluders, queen bees and eusocial kowtowers sucking off the teat of the common weal, while squatting in the derelict basement of his imagination."-- Provided by publisher.
