Doggy Bag is an outrageous Avant-Pop answer to T. S. Eliot's "The Waste Land." Don't waste anything: recycle it, cut it up and snarf it down like a Naked Lunch. Doggy Bag is a net of hyperfictions about Americans in a spiritually exhausted Europe forced to recycle the trash of their own culture. Under the dictatorship of the consumer, ecology is freedom. Written in a person to person and often interactive style.
Doggy Bag samples advertising, the entertainment industry and B-movie versions of ancient mythologies, splices in cryptograms, weird graphic designs, humans infected with a computer virus, conspiracy projection studios, neural image fabrication by Total Control, Inc., and gives you characters like Jim Morrison, Federico Fellini, a bird named Edgar Allan Crow, a secret sect of White Voodoo Financial Wizards, the Iron Sphincters, and Bruno the sex dog. Hard core Pomo, Doggy Bag surfs simulacra the way Kerouac cruised the Great American Highway.
Recommended for punks, hackers, slackers, rappers, sex fiends, skate rats, metal maniacs, troublemakers, pleasure junkies, buttonheads, disaffected students and other rabble addicted to good writing.
