About this title

Synopsis

Selections made from nominations by the editors of independent noncommercial presses and magazines. The first Editor's Choice spanned the period from 1965 to 1977. The volume following this one, Editor's Choice III, spans the period from 1983 to 1990.

From Library Journal

There is something here for every reader: male or female, gay or straight, black or white, etc. For that reason, the work should have been twice as long; as it stands, specific appetites are whetted but never satisfied. Here and there, one finds genuine nuggets: Charles Bukowski's booze-washed ode to "wife no. 3 or 4," an on-the-money cartoon by Lynda Barry, and Ron Wallace's sweet tale of bedtime stories, in which the child fails to grasp the big words but gets mad when Dad tries to explain them. But on the whole, most libraries would be better served by a subscription to co-editor Sklar's innovative journal The Spirit That Moves Us .
