    Kelsey Brookes: Psychedelic Space (Gingko Press) $60.00 – Kelsey Brookes is a trained biochemist, and this book consists of pieces based on the molecular structure of subatomic particles of, you guessed it, hallucinogenic drugs. Guess what else that will blow your mind? HE HAS THOSE MOLECULAR STRUCTURES MEMORIZED. My brain is falling out of my head just thinking about this. Oh! And! It has gatefold spreads, a sticker sheet, and a clear molecular overlay on one of the LSD pieces so you can see how the molecules match up with the painting. There’s another booklet bound within (books inside of books, like a fucking fractal). There’s even some glow-in-the-dark business here. If this isn’t all enough to melt your mind, there are essays by Hamilton Morris, Leoni Bradbury, Richard M. Doyle, and a visual essay by Ryan McGinness, as well as a dialogue with Kelsey Brookes by Anthony Kiedis.

    Perish Plains vol 3 by Keith Jones & Seth Scriver (Perish Publishing) $12.00 – A drawing focused series that pairs two contemporary artists to collaborate on 20-30 pages of abstract landscapes or environments.

    Welcome to the Dessert of the Real! Delivered by hand from Toronto, this gorgeous latest volume of Perish Plains drops you in a post-environment shitscape, spins all your candy into glass, and smokes it up in your favorite childhood meth stem. Wander and get lost, step on a rusty nail, get riso-dot lockjaw, drop your sherbet in the sludge. It’s sundown on a garbage-dump world where the DNA’s all effed and the only constant is decay. Give your highbrow a Brazilian wax and let the dregs carry you downstream with a turd for a paddle. ~GS

    Johnny Would You Love Me If…by Brontez Purnell $13.00 – As an HIV+ writer trapped in the Bay Area’s hipster-food-service purgatory, Brontez Purnell (aka Junx from the legendary Gravy Train) is “privy to some pretty tawdry bullshit” — and he’s dishing the whole hot mess up for you ala carte, with a side of tossed salad, and a generous portion of his own soul for dessert. Purnell is a Shaolin monk of shade, with a perzinester’s unblinking addiction to confession, and the kind of razor-in-shoe sense of humor that a writer can only bless you with after signing a couple long-term leases in hell. He can dredge humor from the lowest of lows and the highest of gallows: his positive diagnosis (“I was feeling rather AIDS-y”), a 12-step program (“As part of our treatment process in Barebackers Anonymous we had to complete weekly assignments. Assignment #1: Go buy some condoms you dirty whore”), therapy (“I scheduled an appointment with my therapist even though that bitch is my worst enemy”), bad days at the bath house (“Like if you put every dude shopping at Target on any given day in towels and put them in this sex maze”). Purnell takes life’s lemons and makes a damn good mimosa. He can make you laugh through the horror, and throw in a santaria death-curse recipe at no extra cost. ~GS

    Disillusioned Illusions by Greg Stump (Fantagraphics Underground) $30.00 – When a pair of washed-up silhouettes abandon the optical illusion business to make a graphic novel, they desperately hope the book will rocket them to fame and fortune. They’ll do just about anything to finish their project — anything, that is, except put forth any kind of effort whatsoever. Instead, they enlist a Juilliard-trained actor named Rodney to bear the burden of the work while they bicker, smoke, and relax in the break room. But their ingenious attempts at evading the hard labors of proper storytelling backfire when the three become entangled in a labyrinthine narrative of deception, adoption, and betrayal. Alliances and identities are forged and discarded with the turn of a page as the trio hurtles towards a thrilling courtroom conclusion that threatens to pull back the curtain on closely-guarded secrets and conspiracies.
