Killing the Celt

Killing the Celt is a collection of short fiction, metafiction, and nonfiction pieces that include Celtic history, social and political satire, travel narratives, pop-culture musings, and memoir. The book's 31 essays and stories are framed within brief histories of the six Celtic holocausts, and bound together with a Celtic sensibility marked by dark, anarchic humor; a love of place, time, and culture; and a steely distrust of authority.

In Killing the Celt, you will:

Travel to the hillfort at South Cadbury, thought to be the site of Arthur's Camelot.

Find out why Elvis was a Celtic man and the Beatles were a Celtic band.

Follow the adventures of the Celtic deus ex machina, a strange, kilted little fellow who always shows up, outrageously, at just the right time.

Visit the Rebel Grill, a Southern bar-b-que joint, in the gray, empty spaces of Northern England.

Ultimately, Killing the Celt is about the slow passing of Celtic culture, the fountainhead of the Western imagination, into the twilight of time.
