Depends... Hell's Angels est vraiment pas le même style. Et Rum Diary est avant son époque de drogues (parcontre, j'adore les deux, donc...)

Life As I Have Known It Has Been "Finger Lickin' Good"
by Colonel Harland Sanders

Mindblowingly awesome book. I found it at a used bookstore about six years ago, and bought it because it was pretty much the most ridiculous thing I'd ever seen...

I hope you're not going to say the Colonel's literature is the most inspiring work you've read in years.

I wouldn't necessarily say that, but I will say that the guy lived a pretty crazy life... he was retired and living off social security when he started opened a small restaurant in his home kitchen in order to bring in a little extra income... the first half of the book talks about growing up shoveling coal for the railroad, working at gas stations and hotels... and it's all written in his own bizarre take on the English language.

If you can get your hands on a copy it really is worth reading... I mean, one can't survive on Bukowski, PK Dick, Peter Sotos and Gabriel Garcia Marquez alone!

geek love, katherine dunn : a carnival family mom has ingested pesticides, radioactive materials, and a variety of drugs in order to produce children who are special: piano-playing conjoined twins, the bald albino hunchback dwarf, chick, (who has telekinetic powers), and arturo the aqua boy, who was born with flippers instead of arms and legs. arty establishes an arturan cult, whose members lop off parts of their body in order to become more like him. arty swims and frolics in an aquarium and then preaches dark, enigmatic sermons to his assembled admirers. "if i had arms and legs and hair like everybody else, do you think i'd be happy? i would not!" ... "because then i'd worry did somebody love me! i'd have to look outside myself to find out what to think of myself!"

pure trance, junko mizuno : following the 3rd world war, humankind left the toxic surface of the earth and built an underground city to survive. a serious social problem has emerged in this new society: hyperorexia, or severe overeating, a side effect of the "pure trance" life-sustaining pill.




101 alternatives to sucides for teens, freaks and other outlaws, kate bornstein : a controversial guide to surviving 'outside the box', "for marginalized youth who want to stay on the edge, but alive". ranges from “#2: take a deep breath and touch yourself” to “#22: moisturize!” to “#79: take drugs” to “#81: starve yourself.”designed to encourage readers to give themselves permission to unleash their hearts' harmless desires, the book has only one directive: "don't be mean."

the lone ranger and tonto fistfight in heaven, sherman alexie : anthology of short stories which are totally despairing social realism - brilliant dark humour full of heart... somehow, each time you laugh it is like ripping a bandage off wounds centuries old..

night-vision: illuminating war and class on the neo-colonial terrain, butch lee & red rover : “a book that should be read by anyone who gives a damn about a non-racist, non-sexist, non-homophobic future.” breaking it down, how it all fits together, & how to break it apart again.

the dispossessed, ursula k leguin : anarchist science fiction
I'm feeling fraggle rock right now..
