All through
the interminable preparation for this book I tried to avoid the inevitable
contemplation of the hideous reality that this was my life. I was gathering
together some of the best surviving stuff that I had ever written, goddamn it.
This was my fucking life. This was it. Life. This was all there was. The blurb
reads…
“The definitive collection of
Mick Farren’s prose, over four hundred pages of some of the best writing the
counterculture has ever produced, carefully selected and extensively annotated
by Mick Farren himself, with superb line-art illustrations by Michael Robinson,
a foreword by CHARLES SHAAR MURRAY, a preface by FELIX DENNIS, plus encounters with
JOHNNY CASH, FRANK ZAPPA, CHUCK BERRY, GORE VIDAL and PETE TOWNSHEND, among
others. Over four decades of Farren’s very best interviews and polemics.”
Right now
you can buy the deluxe paperback. The much cheaper paperback will be out in the
spring.
