Synopsis

Poems, prose, correspondence, emails, rantings, manifestos, observations, songs, and soliloquies by singer-songwriter, troubadour, and proto-punk Peter Case and writer, music journalist, educator, folklorist, and drummer David Ensminger. EPISTOLARY REX comprised of correspondence between friends and colleagues Houston beat/punk David Ensminger and California troubadour Peter Case, inspired by hero Allen Ginsberg's letters with his peers, and other documents of the once-upon-a-time counter-culture, in this day (and night) of materialist madness and right wing surges world-wide, while the people of the earth suffer. Visions, dreams, childhood memories, tales of the street, surrealist echoes of the horrors and bliss of the daily quotidian, along with off-the-cuff songs, word pictures of forgotten people and places, whispers of deep long- ings and other candid revelations ... knocked out in less than three weeks, over a space of two thousand miles, in odd moments and breaks in the days and nights of work, love, and survival.
