> is discounted from 20-70%, in
> an effort to clear some stock off the shelves as well as generate
> some cash to pay the printers
> for our upcoming season of new titles. There are many, many hidden
> gems in our warehouse, and

> examples:

> “The Anarchists,” by John Henry Mackay, a great novel set in
> Victorian London at the time of the
> Haymarket riots. This book was originally published in 1891, and
> reissued by Autonomedia just over
> a century later, and it's under-read, to say the least. It's great!
> And we've got it on sale for
> $6 and change!

> Some new books you'll find in the bookstore:
>
> * The brand new issue of Cometbus mysteriously showed up in our
> warehouse, stinking of newsprint
> and old beer. This issue includes interviews with members of TV on
> the Radio, Low, Neurosis, The
> Evens, Casual Dots, and more, as well as bunch of new stories, a
> NYC Used Bookstore report, and a
> 26-page mini-book bound in the same covers. Your $2 copy awaits at
> http://bookstore.autonomedia.org/index.php?

>
> * Walter Benjamin, “On Hashish.” Benjamin was no stranger to the
> hash pipe, and documented his
> experiments with hashish between 1927 and 1934, investigating what
> he called “profane
> illumination.” At issue here, as everywhere in Benjamin's work, is
> a new way of seeing, a new
> connection to the ordinary world. Under the influence of hashish,
> as time and space become
> inseparable, experiences become subtly stratified and resonant: we
> inhabit more than one plane in
> time. What Benjamin, in his contemporaneous study of Surrealism,
> calls “image space” comes vividly
> to life in this philosophical immersion in the sensuous. Yowza.

> * Max Cafard, “The Surre(gion)alist Manifesto and Other Writings.”
> Regarding this inspiring and
> rollicking brew of surrealism, anarchism, Chinese philosophy and
> Nietzschean trouble-making,
> Andrei Codrescu wrote the following: “[H]is insurgent writing gave
> our readers the sudden frisson
> that they were in the presence of something new. One never forgets
> that frisson when first
> encountering Nietzsche, Cioran, Derrida, or Deleuze... The frisson
> is renewed by each encounter,
> but the original feeling of the discovery is unequalled. This was
> precisely my epiphany on
> encountering Max Cafard's manifesto: I am in a new place.” Only
> $12, and available at
> http://bookstore.autonomedia.org/index.php?
