EXCERPT:

(1)-

It may be that the corridors of the place surged wth lust and bile, strewn with detritus of lesbian orgies and sour with the stench of spiked ambitions. Perhaps those ghostly turntables concealed murderous rivalries and libidinous rituals, unspeakable rites in which cockerels were drained of their blood and some plump young postulant was held down on the altar to have her gizzard slit, while her weird sisters blasphemously gabbled snatches of Mass backwards in their cracked Northern vices. One kind of postmodernist would be interested only in whether they were having sex with each other. Even if they were not, there certainly would have been some bickering and b****ery, cussedness, some sour temper and erotic entanglements, a whole complex micro-politics.
