Click Click Snap is a 2007 book by Sean McGowan. It is a work of literary nonfiction and a photographic novel (but not a photo novel).
The book has been released into the public domain. The full book can be read for free [1] (see source).
Click Click Snap is written in first person prose. In the book, Sean McGowan travels through Athens, Ephesus, Bent Jbail, Beirut, Damascus, The West Bank, Petra, and Cairo; completing the eight chapters of the book, respectively.[2] Its diverse (and, arguably, scattered) topics mainly include the neuroscience of art, war, belief, racism.
Unusually, each chapter is written as a self-sustaining joke, where more serious topics seemingly arise incidentally. Specific incidences include urinating on the Temple of Artemis to illustrate the benefits of biological satisfaction and stealing a federal election ballot at gunpoint during the 2007 elections in Syria to show "...even though there is such a thing as a ballot with only one name on it, there is no such thing as a clear choice."[3]
