New Book

Because, as far a I know, there isn't and never has been a "Crudely's Pub &
Breakfast" in London.

"Schrapnel is not my pseudonym," McKee is swift to point out. "He is
something like my Frankenstein, a fictional character I've created who mixes
wild literary criticism with rants on everything from books and writers to
drinking games and T-back swimwear.
"Most of the Schrapnel essays begin with a dubious lesson in definitions and
origins of words like bop, hood, cretin, murgatroyd, monster, poontang,
literature, cannibal, gig, cynic, romantic, green, then digress into some
rather off-the-wall observations on the crazier qualities of this world we
rent."

Richard McKee is the author of The Clan of the Flapdragon (U of Alabama P,

B.M.W. Schrapnel, Ph.D., a key figure in the gonzo literary criticism
movement of the Florida underground.
