Foucault's Snails

<p>These poems deal with some ordinary and not so ordinary facets of a rich life and they will appeal to those who enjoy words and value the ways in which they can help us to experience life with a greater intensity. Snails creep slowly from one place to another leaving sticky trails which are very hard to  wipe away. In the same way words lay down a trail and it’s often only years later that we can make sense of the trail they have left. Michel Foucault was the writer who inspired the author to come to terms with the capacity of language to deceive as well as to define instruct and enlighten and so in a way this book is a tribute to him.  </p>
