Description:
This
chapbook collects some unduly neglected works by noted poet William
Ashbless (Tim Powers and James Blaylock), and contains "Slouching
Toward Mauritius," a piratical short story written more than
25 years ago but never published, along with a lengthy pirate poem,
"Moon-Eye Agonistes." Ashbless' notorious compatriots Tim
Powers and James P. Blaylock have contributed an introduction and
afterword, respectively, to put the pieces in their proper historical
perspective. William Hastings also makes a special contribution to
this piece of Ashbless history! Signed by Powers and Blaylock.
Printed
in two colors throughout, this deluxe chapbook is fully illustrated
with four two-color illustrations by Gahan Wilson.
