Bald Ego No. 2
About this book
This second issue of Bald Ego unloads fresh food for thought onto the periodical table with a fertile editorial mix of the raw and the cooked, pure and impure, sacred and profane, unvarnished truth and shiny fiction--not to mention edible metaphors. Co-editors Max Blagg and Glenn O'Brien have once again assembled a potent catalogue of talented artists and writers to create a document that clearly reflects some of the anxieties and ecstasies of our age--perhaps in the hope that the balance will once again shift to the side of ecstasy. Contributors to this issue include Larry Clark, Lynne Tillman, Andre Martelor, Mary Gaitskill, Burk Uzzle, Richard Hell, Nick Tosches, Sean Mortensen, Cecily Brown, Justen Ladda, and many others, each responding in their own singular fashion to the beauty and madness of the twenty-first century.
