Zine Review - Rose Gardens of Life No. 2

Posted on Feb 1st, 2007 by CarolineTigeress : Meandering Soul CarolineTigeress
Zine Review - Rose Gardens of Life No. 2

Rose has changed her format to the long fold one, which really seems to fit her way of writing – very quick and easy to read. This isn’t really a poetry zine like before, but instead one long and interesting story about bigotry and making value judgments. Rose’s mentality is clear here, about demonstrating tolerance and love to her fellow human being. A buck and a half and this zine just keeps getting better and better.

Snippet:

“When people are reduce to ‘those and you,’ it hurts the soul of the world. Whoever sees their world this way must surely have a dark empty hole in their own souls”

Zine Review - Rose Gardens of Life No. 3

Posted on Feb 2nd, 2007 by CarolineTigeress : Meandering Soul CarolineTigeress
Zine Review - Rose Gardens of Life No. 3

Rose keeps the Long format, and continues to write long sweeping epic poetry. It’s almost all bittersweet, but clever, with her clever notes that hang in the air like the sound crystal makes when tapped. It’s enjoyable to me to read, smooth and easy like a good table wine. A buck and a half and very enjoyable

Snippet:

“If I could relive a time of sorrow or joy,

If I could choose to know all of my life’s sorrows gone.

What Joy could I then recall without the loss, what could I call gain.”

Zine Review - Nobody can eat 50 eggs #25

Zine Review - Nobody can eat 50 eggs #25

This huge issue is by far one of my favorites, and has a lot of Steve Steiner artwork in it, but the real hilarity is in the writing. “How to be a Mad Scientist” is very, VERY funny, with such sub notes as, “Physical Traits of a Mad Scientist, Perfecting the Evil Laugh, Setting up a Laboratory, Assistants & Henchmen, Obtaining test subjects, Experimentation / Evil Schemes and Fighting the Government” and ends with the cool quiz, “What kind of criminal are you?” Very funny, can be had by contacting him directly:

Zine Review - University

Posted on Feb 15th, 2007 by CarolineTigeress : Meandering Soul CarolineTigeress
Zine Review - University

Elizabeth Rabbit’s step from her familiar home in England to the University in Edinburgh is fraught with insecurity, doubt and curiosity. She takes all of these things on, and gives us a very, very personal zine that details her first year. From getting settled to her new flat to making new friends and foes, Elizabeth’s writing is clear and very interesting. Filled with interesting things from the local establishments with too-high-priced drinks to a very interesting piece about Trainspotting, this thick zine clearly documents 9 months in a person’s life, and is very fulfilling reading. Two bucks and worth every dime.

Snippet:

Lying motionless on the art college’s grassy courtyard with Donna’s head on my legs, I couldn’t help laughing and wondering why I was ever seriously considering moving back home. I’d never had this much fun in my life. The night air was forcing my brain back into working order, but for some reason everything seemed to be bone-shakinglyu hilarious, or so Donna thought and I couldn’t help but agree.
