Announcing the forthcoming publication of FLOOD by Paul Abbott with illustrations by Gail McNeillie, available February 2008
Limited edition of 100 copies.
22pp 170mm x 240mm ISBN 0-9553476-2-9
 Paul Abbott's poem FLOOD is a 'Waste Land' for the twenty-first century, a timely and daring debut in the disaster genre, by a twenty-one-year-old in his final year at Oxford. Those who have read the first issue of Clutag's magazine Archipelago will have enjoyed a snapshot of the poem in its pages. Now it is offered complete in ten sections, illustrated with eight
superbly grainy drawings by Gail McNeillie. The vision here - 'an Epic Newsflash' - is one of post-apocalyptic catastrophe 'couched,' we're told in a prefatory note 'somewhat in the film-cutting style of Soviet montage theory (which I read about on Wikipedia)'.
