The Authorized Biography of Thor: Unauthorized, Revised, and Unfinished Edition by Jeremiah McDowell
A book that shouldn't exist by a writer who shouldn't be. A labyrinth of contradictions, revelations, and absurdity, folding in on itself yet expanding outward into something far greater that its pages. A book that knows.
"Jeremiah McDowell has a voice and a vision, and thankfully for the reader, he has the talent and power to deliver. The Authorized Biography of Thor is a Borgesian tome of tomes that gives the reader a glimpse into the Definitive Standard Revised Version of McDowell's consciousness, the likes of which no one has ever seen. I loved it so much I published it." --Michael Stevens

The Road to Interzone: Reading William S. Burroughs Reading
“The Road to Interzoneis a partially annotated bibliography of the reading of William S. Burroughs. (...) In 2000, I set out to catalogue every published literary reference Burroughs made throughout his career. The document you hold in your hands is the result. It stands as a testament of an obsession and more importantly, the raw material for an investigation into what John Livingston Lowes called: 'the shaping spirit of the imagination,' the source materials of what was to become Burroughs' literary legacy and the skeleton for an interpretation of the operational processes of influence and the function of artistic inspiration. (...) The Road to Interzone seeks to identify the literary influences that made WSB's legendary canon of work possible.”
“A fascinating and richly helpful piece of literary archeology, tracing as broadly as possible the sources William Burroughs had available to him as he wrote. Both the title and the method echo the classic Road to Xanadu, John Livingston Lowes excavation of Coleridge's reading: Coleridge, like Burroughs, being more than a little interested in drugs. It is a work for which all Burroughs students should be grateful.” —Larry McMurtry
"I was fortunate to receive a copy of this book when it was passing hand-to-hand in manuscript form. It's a unique resource for Burroughs scholars. Two centuries from now it will still be in print. A bow to Michael Stevens for his determination and dedication." --Tom Veitch
