Publisher's Synopsis
This second volume of John O'Loughlin's 'Collected Short Prose' dates from 1982-4 and differs from those prose pieces in the first volume, 'Two Sides of the Same Coin' (1976-81), only in the sense that some of the ones included here are, by and large, more ideologically conditioned, the ideological philosophy of Social Transcendentalism having begun to sprout from the soil of his fertile intellect around 1984, and therefore coinciding with a number of pieces appertaining to what was originally the author's seventh book of short prose which, frankly, comes right at the end of his commitment to the genre and therefore coincides with a marked rise in philosophical tempo, so to speak, in his writings as a whole. - A Centretruths editorial
