LeRoy, Alvin Orloff, Kevin Killian, Dennis Cooper, Inga Muscio, Eileen Myles, Jayson Elliott, Thea Hillman, and a couple of dozen of their fellow travelers sending dispatches from the fringe. And, oh, the people they'll bring into your personal space: speed junkies, scat freaks, cybersexualists, sober virgins, beatnik groupies, punk-rock shoplifters, gender benders, Tourette's syndrome fetishists, gloomophiles, glamazons, and even a naked butoh dancer.
