"Durga sings every night"

Here my latest book is now available. Durga Maa is represented by Her yantra, which is the perfect solution for cover images. Here is Durga sings every night, Because of the subject matter, I am fairly stroppy in the introduction, mounting  a vicious attack on narcissism, indeed on all forms of fascism, &, equally predictably, on the motherfucking patriarchy with its new egomimetic development into the regime of the brother, first depicted by Juliet Flower MacCannell.

This book by David C. McLean is a complement to the series that he is writing on Kali Maa & the Mahavidyas. 

It contains an introduction that relates Durga to Kali, & describes the contrast between the demands of commensurability & intensity, between chaos & order, & between goddess & patriarchal oppression. 

McLean argues that the only fundamental wrong is narcissism, & describes the selective eternal return in Deleuzian terms so the ego is excluded, only the partial & fragmentary gets to be born again, only that which is incomplete & process.
