The People’s Apocalypse edited by Ariel Gore and Jenny Forrester

(Lit Star/Microcosm) This pocket sized (or bunker space-saving sized) manual of mental, spiritual and practical preperation for armegeddon is pretty fascinating. Through essays, prose, poetry, prayers, pamphlets, interview, stores, and goat raising guides, this gives a lefty, punk, d.i.y., hipster, crusty, outsider take on a subject so monumental there are a lot of parallels to right wing, cnservative, bible thumping, survivalist, militia folks takes on the matter. But as the US Government makes clear…if there’s zombies involved we’ll all be in this together.
