Of Dead Snakes

David Mclean’s anarchic, pitch-black poetry snatches the philosophies and theologies of history out of the air like mosquitoes or bad smells and subjects them to a twenty-first century frisk. From the micro to the macro, no sacred cow is safe... David was born in Wales in 1960 and has lived in Sweden since 1987. 'Of Dead Snakes' is the newest of several McLean collections, and the first to be published by the Oxford-based, internationally-minded Rain Over Bouville.
