BOOKSTORE NOTES & NEWS

A major oversight occurred last issue in our failure to announce publication of the “Daily Barbarian.” Done as a full-size newspaper, it contains articles on the anti-nuke movement and its tactics, a call for the end of civilization, a poster and some generalized insanity. It refuses to-be sold, but will be sent upon receipt of a large envelope and some stamps. Send to Queen for a Day c/o 4403 Second Ave, Destroyit, MI 48201...

The Post Office has struck again with yet another postal increase for 4th Class Book Rate postage. This has jacked the cost up to $.59 for the first pound and $.22 for each additional pound. This represents about a 20% increase which makes you realized that Carter only whines about inflation when you are trying to pry another dollar out of your employer. So, please note this when ordering. Unless you have requested a very small pamphlet, you usually should include the minimum postage...

As demonstrated by how quickly people ordered “Leaving the 20th Century” edited by Chris Gray and “Revolution of Everyday Life” by Raoul Vaneigem, it is evident that interest in the Situationists has not decreased with time. Unfortunately, we have sold out of both titles and Gray’s collection is now out-of-print, with no current plans to re-publish it. We have ordered more of the Vaneigem book from England, but there is no telling when (or if) it will arrive, so, we advise waiting until we list it again before re-ordering. If there is a print shop interested in reprinting the “Leaving...” book, please get in touch with us and we will see if something can be worked out with the folks in Britain who have the negatives...

Spectre Publications, the gang who brought you the “Did You Ever Want To Kill Your Boss?” poster have done another good one which is a take-off on the Speed Writing ads on public transportation. The theme is the abolition of work. Write them at 175 Fifth Ave, Suite 1101 NYC 10010...

Another popular title has been Jay Kinney’s Anarchy Comics and Jay has been promising a second edition due any time now. Price and content are unknown to us yet, but hopefully we will have it by our next issue...

Left Bank Books, 92 Pike St., Seattle WA 98101, will send books to prisoners at cost and pay postage. Write for a list of books.

Also, out that way, Black Eye Press, PO Box 30097, who just published the FE-Zerzan reprint “Industrialism & Domestication” also have an incredible array of postcards with revolutionary slogans, cartoons and oddities available for sale, but in quantity only. Write for details...

The Anarchist Black Cross has announced publication of class war prisoner Lorenzo Komboa Ervin’s “Anarchism and the Black Revolution” $2, as well as three shorter pamphlets by him. Information describing the contents and Komboa’s prison status may be obtained from Ginger Katz, ABC, 339 Lafayette St., NYC 10012. Donations needed...

City Lights Books, 261 Columbus Ave, San Francisco CA 94133, has just released Red Spanish Notebook by Mary Low & Juan Brea. A re-print of a 1937 account of personal experiences of two POUM militants and militia fighters. Their criticism of Stalinist betrayals and the bureaucratization of their own party make it a worthwhile account. Their treatment of the anarchists is vaguely sympathetic, but the overall perspective is ruined by the trotskyist politics.
