The Worst Book I Ever Read

Literary Nonfiction. Literay Criticism. Over 400 pages of the most searing, scandalous and scurrilous denunciations of fellow writers ever to appear in print! Innovative, free-form and traditional reviews of texts from the Bible and Ulysses to Borges, Calvino and David Sedaris by Luc Sante, Peter Lamborn Wilson, Jim Knipfel, Carl Watson, David Ulin, Sharon Mesmer, many more. Profusely illustrated in color and black and white. "The Unbearables bare all; they are unbearably smart, unbearably talented, and unbearably lively--but here are the Unbearables at their highly bearable best. It's a pleasure to find out what this group finds unbearable in such an engaging manner" -- Samuel Delany.

"The Unbearables are a bunch of cranks, crackpots, malcontents, misanthropes, ass-pains and brain-aches. Bless their sour pusses" -- John Strausbaugh, author of Sissy Nation and Black Like You.
