Murder at the Conspiracy Convention: And Other American Absurdities Reviews
-
Besides starting the first modern zine, The Realist, Paul Krassner was a member of the Merry Pranksters and co-founded the Yippies. He was the first person I ever interviewed for The Gut, and was extremely friendly and cooperative. This collection of essays is linked by his fascination with irony in all its forms, plus postmodern concerns like reality catching up with or outpacing the satirical vision.
