Paperback. Zustand: Good. Meet Roscoe Baragon-crack reporter at a major (well, maybe not that major) metropolitan newspaper. Baragon covers what is affectionately called the Kook Beat-where the loonies call and tell him in meticulously deranged detail what it's like to live in their bizarre and lonely world. Lately Baragon's been writing stories about voodoo curses and alien abductions; about fungus-riddled satellites falling to earth and thefts of plumbing fixtures from SRO hotels by strange aquatic-looking creatures. Not exactly New York Times material. Maybe it's the radioactive corpse that puts him over the edge. Or maybe it's the guy who claims to have been kidnapped by the state of Alaska But Baragon is now convinced that a vast conspiracy is under way that could take the whole city down-something so deeply strange that it could be straight out of one of the old Japanese monster movies that he watches every night before he goes to sleep. But stuff like this only happens in the movies. Right? The Buzzing marks the fictional debut of the acclaimed author of Slackjaw. It is a novel of deep paranoia and startling originality. And it could certainly never happen. Right? Right.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Monster Stalks NYC When a local drunk is mugged near the toxic Gowanus Canal by "a hulking, hairy beast who smells really bad," Hank Kalabander thinks nothing of blaming the assault on the legendary Bigfoot. His sardonic crime blotter for The Hornet, a local Brooklyn rag, often gleefully recounts the tragedies that befall the borough's dimmer residents. But when an upstart reporter from The Eagle, a tabloid paper, lifts his piece and implicates Bigfoot in two more attacks, the crimes become local news fodder and the hunt for the "Gowanus Beast" takes off. Pretty soon the G.B. is to blame for everything from murder and robberies to playground scuffles and a pie's disappearance--and neighborhood watch patrols have taken to the streets. Alarmed by the populace's response, Hank decides it's his responsibility to disprove the existence of this menacing beast and, with the help of an old carny colleague, put an end to the growing hysteria. In The Blow-off, acclaimed writer Jim Knipfel has crafted an astoundingly funny send-up of our current times--an intoxicating blend of sharp cultural references, wildly comical scenes, discerning commentary, and unforgettable characters.…

Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A Vintage Contemporaries Original, March 2003, 1st printing. 259pp. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Near Fine condition. "Meet Roscoe Baragon--crack reporter at a major metropolitan newspaper. Baragon covers what is affectionately called the kook beat--off-beat stories, local color and all that--everything from abductions (a man who claims to have been kidnapped by the state of Alaska) to a woman who is convinced that aliens have stolen all her plumbing fixtures. Could it be that Baragon is having one too many when he goes home at night and unwinds with one of his dozens of videos of grade-B Japanese horror films--or is he on to the story of a lifetime, something to incredibly weird that it just might be. true? [] In his first novel, the acclaimed author of Slackjaw and columnist for The New York Press has written a wildly original and scathingly funny novel about the people who live outside the increasingly impenetrable facade of the so-called real world and the dark paranoia that lies just beneath its glittering surface. THE BUZZING marks the debut of a distinctive new voice in American fiction." [publisher copy] "[An] uproarious fiction debut. . . Hilarious and genuinely exciting."--Kirkus. "The Balzac of the bin is at it again. With this paranoid Valentine to New York--and to a certain saurian colossus noted for his own ambivalent feelings about large cities--Mr. Knipfel now brings to fiction the welcome gifts which distinguished his previous books--the authenticity, the narrative exuberance, the integrity of his cheerfully undeluded American voice."--Thomas Pynchon. "THE BUZZING is just the kind of wild-hair, wise-ass book this country needs right now. We may never see 'the Great American Novel,' but Knipfel's is a true American novel. Bravo!"--James Taylor. "Jim Knipfel has unassumingly been building a body of work which stands right up there with the best writing, comic or otherwise, ever done in America. His memoirs have had all of the virtues of memoir, and none of the sins; and his fiction, along the same line of virtue, is so abidingly confident that his first novel reads like it had been there all the time, waiting for you to pick it up."--William Monahan. Near Fine+ paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine; the + is the visually buzzing cover design by Chip Kidd which has Pynchon's blurb firing out of Godzilla's mouth, a truly arresting development.…
