The Bizarro Starter Kit (Orange) by Jeremy Robert Johnson, John Edward Lawson, Carlton Mellick III
4.0
Finally... My introduction to Bizarro Fiction.
If you love weird, non-linear, unconventional fiction, if you like to really dig around in the world of literature and find the things that are really just intelligent and "out there", then this is probably a part of what should be your introduction to BIZARRO: A genre that showcases all of these things.
I'd say that most of the works contained in these pages were smart and very enjoyable, but my stand-out favorites were the story "Classroom Dynamics" by D. Harlan Wilson, "The Baby Jesus Butt Plug" by Carlton Mellick III (which reminded me very much of the films of David Lynch), "Extinction Journals" by Jeremy Robert Johnson, and "Suicide Girls in the Afterlife" by Gina Ranalli (which was probably my favorite in the volume and read like an abridged, Bizarro version of "The Divine Comedy").
This one is a must read for anyone interested in the Bizarro Movement or anyone who loves the weird, strange, and extraordinary.
