What is Thus Spake the Corpse : An Exquisite Corpse Reader 1988-1998 : Volume 2, Fictions, Travels & Translations about?

Before suspending publication earlier this year, Andrei Codrescu's controversial and notorious anti-literary literary magazine Exquisite Corpse had become a primary site of engaged dialogue among the non, brain-dead everywhere. Founded in the 1980s on the belief that "American literature, poetry in particular, is sick from lack of public debate, " Codrescu's Corpse took its title from cadavre exquis, a form of collaboration once much practiced in Paris surrealist circles. <p>Rebellion, passion and black humo became the journal's trademarks.
