Editorial Review:

Product Description:
There's a new genre rising from the underground. Its name: BIZARRO. For years, readers have been asking for a category of fiction dedicated to the weird, crazy, cult side of storytelling that has become a staple in the film industry (with directors such as David Lynch, Takashi Miike, Tim Burton, and even Lloyd Kaufman) but has been largely ignored in the literary world, until now. The Bizarro Starter Kit features short novels and story collections by ten of the leading authors in the bizarro genre: Ray Fracalossy, Jeremy C. Shipp, Jordan Krall, Mykle Hansen, Andersen Prunty, Eckhard Gerdes, Bradley Sands, Steve Aylett, Christian TeBordo, and Tony Rauch.




Rating: - Review by Eric C. Adorno
Welcome all to the wonderful bizarro/fiction world known as the "Bizarro Starter Kit" (Blue). Undoubtedly this book invites in to a world of altered states in a genre known as bizarro fiction. One author Fracalossy transports you into this surreal existence in his stories that take you into the deepest darkest inner workings of your imagination. Not since Kerouac and Burroughs have I experienced such a journey in to the minds of the bizarro as i experenced with Fracalossy and Gerdes.

"Bizarro Starter Kit (Blue)" has a different but humerous style of writing. With more than ten stories to choose from it's some what difficult. "It's a Jungle Out There" by Ray Fracolossy has been a unique example of this new writing concept. When a man accidently gets crabs, he wonders how on earth he'll manage to get through the night on which he has "band rehearsal". Not being able to cope with all of the itchiness he later decideds to come foward with the truth ... Read More

The book is very interesting and different from many other books. The title alone has meaning to the book and offers the reader an enjoyable read. Fracalossy's "The Birthday Party" is a story that seemed to be a little strange. The story starts off as if it is Steve's birthday but its really not. The point of the story was for the person to get a girl and a pony for his birthday and make it seem as if it had the tables turned. The story was interesting but a little odd due to the seven inch woman, ... Read More

I had never heard about this type of fiction. The stories in this book are different and very interesting. One of my favorite stories was "The Birthday Party" by Ray Fracalossy. It is unbelievable that one paragraph could allow for the telling of so mmany different things. The story is not coherent. The differece in the characters in the story made me wonder what the true intention of the story was. When I reached the end of the story I kept thinking about it and trying to piece it together. Needless to ... Read More

Rating: - The Bizarro Starter Kit (blue)
After reading two of the strangest stories I have ever read, I found myself enjoying them thoroughly. I found "The Dinner Party" by Ray Fracalossy took a far different turn from where I thought it was going to go. I really enjoyed that I did not know what was going to come up next at the table. The second story I read and enjoyed was "At The Shoe Store". I found that the wackiness of the story was very amusing and I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys reading stories that are just fun. This was another ... Read More
