Confessions of a dangerous mind.

Counterculture warrior Paul Krassner writes the funniest, most intelligent social and political commentary. Nowhere is this more apparent than in this collection of essays and interviews. Whether being interviewed by Susie Bright, imagining a conversation with Pee-Wee Herman and Pete Townshend about their busts by overzealous cops, or reminiscing about his friend Lenny Bruce, Krassner shines his keen satirical mind on the so-called taboos of today. With biting wit and tongue firmly planted in cheek, Mr. Krassner reveals the absurdity of our oppressive social mores in this stark, funny and ultimately thought-provoking collection.

more solemn crannies of American culture.” —The New York Times
