217 pp. Illustrated with b/w photos. Notes, biblio., index. The incredible life of SCREW publisher Al Goldstein, an overweight cab driver and carny barker who became the most outspoken leader of America's sexual revolution, is captured in this unauthorized biography in all its X-rated glory. BENEATH CONTEMPT charts Goldstein's rise to fame as the founder of the pioneering sex tabloid Screw, bizarre offshoots like Death magazine, and his subsequent battles against censorship, political correctness and good taste. In the process he became a king of the sex industry and a multimillionaire, loathed by moral crusaders and feminists alike. The collapse of Goldstein's empire, his survival as a street bum living in homeless shelters, and his defiant return from the ashes to run for the presidency in 2008 is mapped out in meticulous detail in this highly entertaining and lavishly illustrated profile of America's last angry dirty old man.

London: Headpress:, 2024. First edition, TPBO, Trade paperback, New, 280 pp. Cover artwork by: Mark Critchill "Ghost of an Idea: Hauntology, Folk Horror, and the Spectre of Nostalgia examines the use and effect of nostalgia in the Horror and Hauntological realms. It asks why these genres hold such a fascination in popular culture, often inspiring devoted fanbases. From Candyman to The Blair Witch Project, and Dark Shadows to American Horror Story, are the folk horror and found footage phenomena significant artistic responses to political, social, and economic conditions, or simply an aesthetic rebranding of what has come before? How has nostalgia become linked to other concepts (psychogeography, residual haunting) to influence Hauntological music such as Boards of Canada, The Rowan Amber Mill, Hawksmoor, or The Caretaker? What can the 'urban wyrd' or faux horror footage tell us about our idealized past? And how will these cultures of nostalgia shape the future?" First edition, TPBO, Trade paperback, New. Mark Critchill (illustratore).…

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. First Edition. Hardback. Dust Jacket. 8vo. pp ix, 175. Original publisher's grey cloth, lettered gilt on spine. A work of fact, fiction, fable and folklore spanning three generations of southern Italian family life. Signed by the author on the title page, "David Kerekes - Janurary 25, 2012". Limited edition, this being number six of 50. ISBN: 1900486717 Mezzogiorno is a unique mediation on family history and the Italian Diaspora. Author David Kerekes reconstructs three generations of family history and myth, with material drawn from the anecdotal legacy of his mother, enriched by further interviews with other family members in Campania, southern Italy. Set against peasant riots and the collapse of the Fascist Party, the collected and recreated tales are placed in the mouth of a boys ghost, as he reveals the potted tragedies, scandals and secrets of the family Iantosca to his sister. In his quest to explore the anecdotal history of his family, Kerekes came to love the land his mother had left behind, and its atmosphere saturates Mezzogiorno. The religious and superstitious culture in which the Iantoscas lived inevitably make the work as much a piece of magical realism as it is biography, the family drama unfurling amidst a landscape of abject poverty, vicious landlords, San Antonio, feuds, curses, festa and the tarantella, a world lost to the changing Italy of the twenty-first century.
