Publisher's Synopsis

This, the second collection of McKenna's interviews with some of the 20th Century's most brilliant cultural icons, showcases her highly intimate technique as an interviewer. That she manages to get such candour out of her subjects is remarkable. The list of interview subjects includes such luminaries as Elvis Costello, Jacques Derrida, Allen Ginsberg, Richard Hell, Johnny Rotten, Lou Reed and Joe Strummer. Also included are brief oral histories of Andy Warhol and Orson Welles as well as art by R. Crumb, Chris Ware, Jaime Hernandez and Jim Woodring.

About the Publisher

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books has been a leading proponent of comics as a legitimate form of art and literature since it began publishing the critical trade magazine The Comics Journal in 1976. By the early 1980s, Fantagraphics found itself at the forefront of the burgeoning movement to establish comics as a medium as eloquent and expressive as the more established popular arts of film, literature, poetry, et al. Fantagraphics quickly established a reputation as an advocacy publisher that specialized in seeking out and publishing the kind of innovative work that traditional comics corporations who dealt almost exclusively in super-heroes and fantasy either didn?t know existed or wouldn?t touch: serious, dramatic, historical, journalistic, political, and satirical work by a new generation of alternative cartoonists as well as many artists who gained prominence as part of the seminal underground comix movement of the '60s. Fantagraphics has since gained an international reputation for its literate and audacious editorial standards and its exacting production values.
