reviewed "ETC.": Firsthand Observations and Offhand Opinions on August 05, 2011
"ETC."
Paul Krassner's collection of essays and columns--most of which have previously appeared in counterculture magazines or blogs--is at various times hilarious, maddening, shocking, nonsensical, inspiring and idiotic. Krassner is a 1960s counterculture icon who the FBI describes as "a raving, unconfined nut." He was one of the founders of the Yippies, a 1960s counterculture group, and his tales of friendship include Allen Ginsberg, Ken Kesey, Lenny Bruce, Hunter Thompson and Abbie Hoffman. He has interesting things to say about events of the 1960s, his satirical writing of the time, and events current as of the 2005 publication of the book. His description of a satirical piece he wrote about LBJ and the JFK assassination reveals just how hard it is for some people to realize satire when they see it, and his description of a work he commissioned after the death of Walt Disney is as funny as it is just plain wrong. Speaking of wrong, this book is riddled with typographical errors. I wonder if anyone proofread the thing. I'm not exaggerating when I say that there were probably at least 100 typos in the book. That doesn't take away from the messages he's sending, but factual inaccuracies do. Still, it's an entertaining, shocking book, and although I didn't read it in the bathroom, it would be the perfect book for that since it's broken up into 2 or 3 page segments! 318 pages
