Summary

Avant-Pop is innovative fiction, comic book art, unique graphics, and various unclassifiable texts written by the most radical, subversive literary talents of the postmodern new wave. They include cult figures in the pop underground (Samuel R. Delany, Kathy Acker, Tim Ferret, Derek Pell, Harold Jaffe), important new writers who have gained prominence since the late eighties (Mark Leyner, Eurudice, William T. Vollmann), and the most promising new kids on the block ("rap fiction" master Ricardo Cortez Cruz -- winner of the 1992 Nilon Award for Excellence in Minority Fiction -- and Doug Rice, whose obscenely obsessive, Faulkner-meets-Acker prose is showcased here for the first time).

Author Biography

Larry McCaffery's most recent books include Storming the Reality Studio: A Casebook of Cyberpunk and Postmodern SF and Across the Wounded Galaxies: Interviews with Contemporary American SF Writers. He is also coeditor of Fiction International and Critique
