A Grim DetailA Grim Detail

A Grim Detail shoulders the anchor, drags it onward from the end of 2008, and then hurls to the ground in 2010. A world tour, two documentaries and journeys that include North Korea, South Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Mongolia and many others are contained herein. 'Oh no, not another one!' was said or implied by almost everyone involved in the making of this book. Actually, no-it was all of us. After three on and off years of proofreading and editing, A Grim Detail became the kid who no one wanted to play with. Don't laugh. I was that kid, and I am this book, well, you know what I mean. But then, in the early days of 2014, work on A Grim Detail concluded. The relief was total, the contempt, incalculable, the ridicule to come, too painful to imagine. Now, the damn thing is all yours. Have a good cringe and thank you for everything.
