  • - The Fall of the Beaver
    af Gerard Jones
    128,95 kr.

    For decades, Will Jacobs and Gerard Jones's cult classic The Beaver Papers has been the only published chronicle of how the world's literary, artistic, and intellectual communities rose up in a doomed crusade to stop the cancellation of the iconic sitcom, Leave it to Beaver. Now, at long last, it can be revealed that the story did not end that day in 1963 when ABC TV finally pulled the Cleaver family's plug. In The Beaver Papers 2: The Fall of the Beaver, Jacobs and Jones detail the heroic quest of the Beaver cast to find a new home for their beloved show, a quest that led them through the darkest corners of the TV, movie, theater, and even comic book industries. Along the way they present twenty-five new Leave It to Beaver adventures as if written by world-renowned authors, including J. D. Salinger (The Beaver in the Rye ), H. P. Lovecraft (The Mayfield Horror), Flannery O'Connor (A Good Beaver Is Hard to Find), Vladimir Nabokov (Pale Beaver), and Ayn Rand (Cleaver Shrugged). If The Beaver Papers demonstrated just how dubious the distinction is between literature and popular culture, The Beaver Papers 2 positively obliterates it.

  • - The Story of the Lost Season

    In 1983, The Beaver Papers chronicled the efforts of the world's literary community to save the iconic sitcom Leave It to Beaver from cancellation. Along with a behind-the scenes look at what went on at the studio during that enchanted summer, the book contained such scripts as Tennessee Williams's Beaver on a Hot Tin Roof, Yukio Mishima's The Sound of Beaver, Jack Webb's Red Beaver, and Ernest Hemingway's A Clean, Well-Lighted Beaver, as well as such classic homages as Herman Hesse's Beaverwolf and Dostoevsky's The Brothers Cleaver...twenty-five scripts that destroyed once and for all the shadowy border between high art and popular culture. Now, for this 30th Anniversary Edition, we present the entire original edition, along with a new introduction from the authors, a foreword by Lionel Endenberry (The Max Kleinman Reader), and a sneak preview of the long-awaited sequel, The Beaver Papers 2, also available from Atomic Drop Press.

    Is The Max Kleinman Reader the funniest book of the 21st Century? Or does it mark the discovery of a dazzling American poet? Kleinman is a skid-row genius who from 1946 to 1999 produced 30.000 poems, most of them wrapped around his singular obsessions with fallen nuns, shrapnel wounds, Western philosophy, cheap wine, and All-Star Wrestling. The Max Kleinman Reader features the best of these poems, along with a cryptic autobiography, a bizarre interview, and a handful of unsettling photographs. But does Max Kleinman really exist? Or is he the twisted invention of freelance scholar Lionel Endenberry? Endenberry claims to have found a shoebox containing all these documents in a garage sale in Van Nuys, California. He exults at having "discovered a soon-to-be notable literary figure," and calls Kleinman a poet of "enormous versatility and vigor." But after months of searching for further evidence of the shadowy genius's existence, he claims to have found not a trace. Atomic Drop Press doesn't pretend to have the answers to any of these questions. All we know is that The Max Kleinman Reader is one of the strangest and funniest books we've ever seen.
