Paperback. Etat : new. Lipman, Joel (illustrateur). Paperback. If you enjoy the show Mind Hunter--Taking as his text Georges Bataille's insight that "only at the extremes is there freedom," critically acclaimed "guerrilla writer" Harold Jaffe documents Bataille's apercu with 15 bone-chilling illustrations. Manson, Starkweather, Speck, Son of Sam, the Night Stalker, Aileen Wuornos, the Unabomber, Dahmer, Bundy, Gacy, Kemper, Kevorkian and Kissinger are not merely present and accounted for, they are rendered into a "reality TV" that you've never seen before.Widely praised as a virtuoso stylist, Jaffe employs a number of narrative stratagems, such as letters, monologues, interviews and "unsituated dialogues" to torque the flattened, cartoon-like serial killers into a potently unnerving third dimension.As in False Positive, Straight Razor, Eros Anti-Eros and Sex for the Millennium, Jaffe's "docufictions" are at the same time lucid, intricate, gruesome, infinitely sad, and hilarious. At the end we are left with a profoundly incisive commentary on America's insatiable consumption of extremity, conveniently masked as moral condemnation."As in previous works by Jaffe, 15 Serial Killers looks at serial killers through a unique point of view that resists glamorization, and it is effective at reaching deeply into the hic et nuc of the situation.one cannot but admire Jaffe's courage (and gall) in using these notorious figures as the inspiration for "docufiction." The potential of 'docufiction' is philosophically and narratologically rich." --American Book Review"Certain parts of the book had me wondering if he was actually there, hanging out with the killers, sharing a six-pack with them, and watching the way they tore their victims apart. 15 Serial Killers is a flashback into America's horrid past, delightfully written so the reader can relate to the fifteen psychopaths Jaffe describes, and sometimes becomes." --Stephanie Simpson-Woods, The Midwest Book Review Exploring dangerous territory, Jafee uses illustrations, letters, monologues, interviews, and "unsituated dialogues" to bring to life some of the most infamous serial killers of all time.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. The Gorelets Omnibus collects all the bloody little bits of Michael Arnzen's poetry written in the past 10 years into one big volume. From the contents of the original Gorelets chapbook and his classic "refrigerator of the damned" online magnetic poetry experiment, to Arnzen's latest flash fiction and brand new Zombie Haikruel series, this collection chronicles his revolutionary vision for the horror short form. He even received a Bram Stoker Award for Alternative Forms for some of the work included in this book. As one of the first writers to recognize the creative capacity of handheld devices, Arnzen's pioneering work to deliver gory entertainment in as few characters as possible is still eminently relevant today. Thus, a "casebook of criticism"-a collection of scholarly analyses of Arnzen's unique approach to the genre-is included alongside the poetry.

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. 1st Edition. As new in as new dust jacket. SIgned on the title page. "Avant pop writer Eckhard Gerdes returns to the source of darkside rock'n'roll dreams with his latest novel The Million-Year Centipede, a multi-layered take on the prophetic impact of one of the most enigmatic songs by The Doors. 'The Celebration of the Lizard' was written by Doors frontman Jim Morrison as a kind of ritual invocation and though performed at mass raves it was only ever imperfectly recorded as an album track. What was being invoked though? This is the question which Gerdes addresses in a playful postmodern allegory which focuses on the apocalyptic return of a rock'n'roll messiah named Wakelin. Did he fake his own death? Is he expected to collect his true fans and rendezvous with a spaceship due to land any moment? Is he responsible for the bloody deaths of the thousands who refuse to believe in him? And what is the malign significance of the centipede god? The questions multiply, but Gerdes is too canny to offer definitive answers. Instead, he spins out memory shards, text fragments, condensed poems, and even drawings. There are influences drawn from postmodernist writers like John Barth as well as sci-fi writers like Michael Moorcock. Lurking at the back of this novel, though, is a howling spirit of revenge for the betrayed dreams of the 1960s. Gerdes has a poetic sensibility which takes no prisoners."¿Steve Beard, author of Meat Puppet Cabaret and Digital Leatherette. Signed by Author(s).

Jennifer C. Barnes (illustrateur). Hyattsville: Raw Dog Screaming Press:, 2008. First edition, TPBO, Trade paperback, New, 161 pp. Cover artwork by: Jennifer C. Barnes Yes, it's the first appearance of this collection in book form. However, I do feel compelled to point out that both the paperback and the hardcover are print-on-demand titles. Shipp: he's into VERY strange fiction. Me too. "Shipp's novel Vacation established him as one of the foremost authors in the 'bizarro fiction' movement. Now he turns his attention to short fiction and literary horror. The themes of alienation and cultural homogenization on a global scale are explored in closer detail. Shipp notes, "This intimacy makes Sheep and Wolves much darker than its predecessor. Because now, the darkness is invading your homes, your dreams, your lives." The author's trademark quirky characters populate an otherwise bleak landscape, this time around facing horrors at home rather than evils abroad" First edition, TPBO, Trade paperback, New,
