BOAR on the floor…
A posthumous collaboration with grand master Terry Southern has just launched over on Black Scat Books—HOT HEART OF BOAR & OTHER TASTES. I was honored to illustrate the edition with eight collages. However, the lovely front cover image featuring Hermann Göring was done by Terry to accompany his unproduced screenplay, The Hunters of Karinhall—an excerpt of which leads off the collection and is where I discovered the book’s title.
I had intended to post a few of the pictures here, but decided they’re not suitable for a family blog such as this. Thus—if you’re morbidly curious—you’ll have to buy a copy to see them. But even without the illustrations, BOAR is worth owning since nothing can match Southern’s brand of satire.
The edition is limited to 125 copies and includes illuminating introductory texts by Nile Southern.
You can order a copy here.
I’ve been fortunate enough to illustrate two books by Southern—the other being Puritan Porn, which was published in 2007 by Paul Rosheim’s exquisite press, Obscure Publications.
It’s certainly rare to have been blessed with two opportunities to have my name attached to books by my idol. And for this I’m forever grateful to Terry’s son.
Thank you, Nile!
