Google "Irish Epic Poem in 33 Cantos".

You'll find the Kindle Edition of Paul O'Mahony's "Inferno". Written in November 2009, 33,000 words crushed into one story. It's a crime poem, a shocking thriller, an autobiography.

You better be warned: it's a fierce unrelenting attack on certain members of the Roman Catholic bishops' circle, members of government - the ruling class.

But it's full of lines as dense as these

" you wouldn't want
to spoil the thrill
of unbeckoning insight ..."

"Is the Mahābhārata where you find
Ganesh strumming a lyre?
Those are lazy whisperers ..."

This episode is an introduction to the poem by the poet. It is not the poem, however lyrical it sounds.

You never know - this might put you off buying the Kindle edition.
