Apocalypse Culture description
For years I've been a little leery of this book. First published in 1987, this anthology of doomster essays has become a fixture on the bookshelves of every Tom, Pierced Dick, and Harry. After finally reading it, I have to admit that my prejudice against those who think that being cool means reading lots of ReSearch magazines kept me away from what is actually a fascinating volume, wherein the most absurd, inexcusable positions are defended with calm intelligence and witty rationality. With essays ranging from the sexual liberation of necrophiliacs to strong cases against art and agriculture, editor Adam Parfrey's collection is one that Tristan Tzara would enjoy, if he were to rise from his mouldy grave in search of good bathroom reading. |

Utter Filth

well, where should i start?
this book seems little more than a collection of articles written by deranged individuals.
it takes a lot to shake me but i felt dirty after reading it.
one of those article seem to glorify a killer who cracked the skull of a child with a hammer and dismissed charle manson because he had his killings done by others.
the only non article part of the book was a few pages at the end extolling the virtues of free speech.
i suspect the "author" of this book is less interested in our free speech and more interested in his freedom to publish such garbage.
there is absolutely no redeeming value in this piece of trash.
maybe it could serve as toilet paper?
i'm glad i didn't have to pay for it.
i found it in a toilet when i was living in a room in a skid row hotel, infested with mice and cockroaches.
a fitting place for such a book...
