Date: October 3rd, 2024 1:45 PM Author: In (No Future) None of these are super obscure--the Rossiter book is pretty well known in its field, and I think the Reading book got reviews in some of the large newspapers--but they're not huge household titles and I think represent a broad array of things (even though, it being me, there's something of a horror focus to it all).
Constitutional Dictatorship by Clinton Rossiter--really good poli sci book about different attempts by constitutional nations to account for emergency/exceptional powers
Cruel Tales from the Thirteenth Floor by Luc Lang--nasty but often very funny collection of short stories in the tradition of the French 'conte cruel'
Midnight Graffiti, edited by Jessica Horsting & James Van Hise--Strong collection of stories (mostly horror, but some overlap into fantasy/science fiction/crime as well) from the late 80s/early 90s. Includes Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, Harlan Ellison, Dan Simmons.
The Mark Inside by Amy Reading--very fun true (mostly) story of the victim of a swindle in the 19th century who set out to bring the conmen who tricked him to justice. Good, kooky Americana; lots of interesting discussion as well of the much-ballyhooed (itself a conman word!) American love affair with swindles/scams/spectacle.

highlights: the innuits routinely fuck each other's wives; they stuff dead seals with meat and bury it for months then eat it after its fermented; the narrator goes back to denmark after 15 years and can't stand white women, immediately goes back to greenland. |

Short, easy read. Interesting take on post WW2 USSR, alcoholism, the industrial revolution and its consequences. |
