"Here's your opportunity to peek through the keyhole of a basement room filled with secret truths and private obsessions." ~~PAUL KRASSNER, THE REALIST
"Most zines are rotten, stale and nutritionally void. But fringe media connoisseur Chip Rowe has harvested only the finest do-it-yourself publications to make this cream of zine soup. My brain greedily slurped it up!" ~~MARK FRAUENFELDER, EDTOR-AT-LARGE, WIRED MAGAZINE
THE CREAM OF THE ODD CROP OF AMERICAN POP!
Just below the surface of the mainstream lies the eccentric world of zines-homemade magazines created for fun rather than profit. Distributed largely through word of mouth, zines touch on everything you'd expect from a copier counterculture—sex, music, politics, dating, TV, movies, work, food, drugs. Often raw but always offbeat, they offer a refreshing alternative to the mass media's spoon-fed info-bites.
The Book of Zines collects, for the first time, the best writing on pop culture from more than 60 choice zines, including Beer Frame, Ben Is Dead, Bust, Cometbus, Crank, Crap Hound, Farm Pulp, Murder Can Be Fun, Pathetic Life, and Rollerderby. You'll laugh aloud as the most creative minds of the underground take you into the audience at Geraldo!, test-drive strange products, get down with the Pillsbury Doughboy, glean dating tips from thrifted sex-ed records, solve the JFK assassination (more or less), survey passersby about their feelings toward sharks, pay rent to Chuck Berry, relive the great Boston molasses flood, perfect the art of wheelies, heat up a batch of fruitleather underwear, aed ponder the ancient art of drilling a hole in your head to improve your state of mind. There's some weird stuff too. But be careful. Once you discover the fury and passion of zines, you'll be hooked.
