The Carrier Bag Theory of Fiction
By Ursula K. Le Guin Introduction by Donna Haraway Illustrated by Lee Bul
Visionary author Ursula K. Le Guin retells the story of human origin by redefining technology as a cultural carrier bag rather than as a weapon of domination. This influential essay opens a portal to terra ignota: unknown lands where the possibilities of human experience and knowledge can be discovered anew.
Hacking the linear, progressive mode of the Techno-Heroic, the Carrier Bag Theory of human evolution proposes: “...before the tool that forces energy outward, we made the tool that brings energy home.” Prior to the preeminence of the Hero’s killing tools, our ancestors’ greatest invention was the container: the basket of wild oats, the medicine bundle, the net made of hair, the home, the shrine, the place that contains the sacred, the recipient, the story – the bag of stars. THE ESTEEMED WRITER ■ With a new Introduction by Donna Haraway, the RESTRUCTURES EVOLUTION eminent cyberfeminist ■ Images by Lee Bul, a leading South Korean feminist artist with a 2018 retrospective at London’s Hayward Gallery
Ursula K. Le Guin (1929-2018) wrote celebrated and groundbreaking science fiction, non- fiction, poetry and children’s books, including the Earthsea Trilogy and The Left Hand of Darkness.

SCB DISTRIBUTORS..|..SPRING 2020..|..1 My Favourite Dictators The Strange Lives of Tyrants
By Chris Mikul Illustrated by Glenn Smith
“A fantastic reminder of the variety of human behavior.” – Paul Sieveking, Fortean Times
Dictators may be among the worst people in history, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t laugh at them.
Mikul’s focus is on the perverse personalities, bizarre peculiarities and often vile private lives of 11 very strange men – their effortless cruelties, voracious sexual appetites, absurd personality cults, ostentatious uniforms, pretensions and terrible taste in interior decoration. Mikul also includes the political histories of Mussolini, Mao, Gaddafi, Idi Amin, Saddam Hussein, Kim Jong-il and more. Here is just a small sample of the bizarre behavior featured in this entertaining book:
“Turkmenistan’s Saparmurat Niyazov renamed the months of January and April after himself and his mother. He banned car LAUGHING AT TYRANTS radios, smoking, lip-syncing, opera, circuses and beards. He wrote a religious book, and questions about it were included on driving tests. When he developed a hatred of doctors, he dismissed thousands of them, and his religious book supplanted medical textbooks throughout the country...”
Chris Mikul writes and publishes Bizarrism, Australia’s longest-running zine, (c. 1986), and produces Biblio-Curiosa. He wrote The Cult Files, Tales of the Macabre and Ordinary, The Eccentropedia and Bizarrism My Favourite Dictators Vols 1 and 2. He lives in Sydney, Australia.

By Ruby McConnell
Beginning with the eruption of Mt. St. Helens in May, 1980, and written with the critical eye of a seasoned earth scientist, this is an extended eulogy for a rapidly-changing land and population awakening to the realities of climate change, land use, and pollution.
Part natural history, part memoir-in-essays, it’s a moving portrait of a complex, brutal, and beautiful Northwest, where geology bears upon human lives, challenging notions of the region as a wild, untouched and abundant landscape.
The book illuminates the central role of land - scapes in our ideas of home and self, despite the growing disconnect between modern life - styles and the environment. Written with a scientifically-driven female voice, this timely, significant work reveals how the landscapes we inhabit can also help us better understand AUTHOR’S A WOMAN’S GUIDE TO THE WILD ourselves and our relationship to the ground HAS SOLD 25,000+ COPIES beneath our feet.

By Enrico Bonadio
Protecting Art in the Street guides street and graffiti artists on a straightforward journey into copyright issues affecting their art. In words and images, this book offers short answers to basic legal questions that street artists and graffiti writers often ask about protecting their art.
There has been a sharp increase in corporations using and exploiting street artists’ art without per- missions or payment in ad campaigns, video back- drops and more. These forms of art are vulnerable to unauthorized exploitation (and destruction) explicitly because they are placed in the public eye.

Along the way, we realize everything can be a creative act: planning meals for the week or walking to work can be as expressive and fulfilling as writing a novel or painting a portrait. The 365 challenges in this book are designed to help every person find the many creative sides of themselves. Take on one creative challenge a day. Or binge them all. Or roll the dice and let fate decide. This is the perfect tool to jump-start a fresh, creative new reality. 365 CREATIVE CHALLENGES! ■ Draw the letter ‘M’ in 50 different ways ■ Talk to someone who is either double or half as old as yourself ■ Listen to songs that start with the same letter as your name.

By Owen D. Pomery
“Pomery’s composition and visuals demonstrate his appreciation of the unique storytelling opportunities inherent in the comics page.” – Andy Oliver, Broken Frontier
“Visually innovative, exciting, and absolutely bloody brilliant to behold.” – Frank Plowright, Slings and Arrows
On a summer’s day, Ellen returns to the coastal town where she grew up, the picturesque, yet architecturally strange Victory Point. Revisiting old haunts and people, she feels increasingly disconnected from her previous life and exhausted by the constant struggle of trying to forge a path ahead.
This delicate story of existential musing asks: Should one strive for a higher calling or a simple domestic legacy? If the land from the past feels as alien as the one we hope to reach, how does anyone make their peace with life?
Owen D. Pomery works in architecture and comics, and is best known for his 6-part miniseries, Between the Billboards.

By Arhm Choi Wild
What does it take to unlearn the survival instinct of trauma? What does it take to choose our tools instead of wearing down the ones we’ve been handed? Wild forges the answers by navigating the chasm between the Asian and American identity, between queerness and the politics of belonging, between survival and the possibility of choice.
INHERITANCE If I speak now I deny generations of mouths politely closed. I inherit the paper mouth pummeled smooth hiding folds of cash until the bruises crowd and we finally say enough. In our family I am the first American. What choice is there but to grunt and pry at what has been slammed closed, to love open like sunflowers following the sun A QUEER ASIAN-AMERICAN VOICE trusting to be fed CONTENDS WITH IDENTITY POLITICS not burned? To be the first means to salvage. What choice is there but to peel off the flies caught on my sticky tongue?
Arhm Choi Wild is a Kundiman fellow from Ann Arbor, Michigan, with an MFA in Poetry from Sarah Lawrence.

A hybrid text of poetry and prose that explicates the articulation of growth and grief. After the loss of his mother, Holmon re-learns how to live by immersing himself in popular culture to parse out his emotions. His poems and essays are drenched in sadness and unmistakable humor, and are alive with timely references.
from Anatomy of a prayer My mother is shotgun subtle when it comes to bad news, “I rented Erin Brokavich… Julia Roberts has HUUUGE teeth “By the way the cancer is back. It’s in my liver and spine…. Seriously, her teeth are huge” She believes in God the way I think that everything will be okay but I’ve been watching her lose faith in her human as the presence of a cane becomes a reminder that her shotgun subtle is becoming sandcastle and whenever people say she is in their prayers I become more of my father’s son trying to configure an formula for the measurement of prayers as if I could calculate how many more it will be AN EMOTIONAL LOOK AT GRIEF THOUGH untill she is allowed to take sitting up for granted again THE LENS OF POPULAR CULTURE How many more till I believe everything will be okay…

SCB DISTRIBUTORS..|..SPRING 2020..|..31 The Willies Poems
By Adam Falkner
“...a prophetic voice in bleak times.” – Dr. Cornel West
A sharp, vulnerable, new portrait of the journey into queerhood in America.
Falkner departs from more familiar coming out narratives to center on stories of dueling selves, all called Willie. Through snapshots of these different ‘Willies,’ tragic, humorous and humane, Falkner offers new ways of under - standing the intersectional linkage that binds queer shame to cultural appropriation.
Let’s Get One Thing Halfway Straight: I have spent my entire life trying on costumes because no one told me I couldn’t and the stakes were never that high which I’ve come to think is mostly what makes a white writer a white writer. The last time anyone referred to me by that name was exactly never but that’s also the point. I am a queer poet. Child of an addict. Masquerading white boy. My best friend died and it was sad and these are the stories I water into bloom: camp counselor test cheat choirboy cypher rapper / scratch golfer honor roll pothead point guard / and COURAGEOUS, MERCILESS POEMS Whitman says very well you contain multitudes but he was a white writer too. The not- so- funny thing about spending a life proving you aren’t something is that any story that isn’t the story is survival or more like a brick for laying until the wall is high enough that you’re safe inside and you wake up and say whoops whose house is this who did I hurt to get here and is it too late to call for help.

By David Sudnow Foreword by Gabe Durham
A new edition of this classic features Sudnow’s wild pilgrimage into the limitless microworld of play, a groundbreaking longform criticism of Atari’s 1976 Breakout, decades before any other serious game studies.
Just as the video game console market was about to crash, Sudnow unearthed the secrets of “eye, mind, and the essence of video skill” through an exploration of Breakout, one of the earliest hits of the arcade world.
While early critics scorned the idea of a serious book about an object of play, the book’s modern readers remain fascinated by an obsessive, brilliant, and often hilarious, quest to learn to play Breakout – just as one would learn to play the piano.
■ FRESH NEW EDITION OF THE Featuring a new critical Foreword and freshly edited text GROUNDBREAKING 1983 CLASSIC ■ Originally released in 1983 as Pilgrim in the Microworld ■ Breakout was created by Apple founders Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak
David Sudnow (1938-2007), a sociology pro - fessor in the UC system, wrote Passing On: The Social Organization of Dying and the piano theory book Ways of the Hand, for which he received a Guggenheim. He also taught piano from his Sudnow Piano Breakout Method to thousands of students across the world.

By Ludovic Castro
A detailed analysis of From Software’s newest video game, Sekiro.
After 3 episodes of Dark Souls and one Bloodborne, the studio From Software and creator Hidetaka Miyazaki have reached the high pantheon of video games. Their new title, Sekiro, displays the same strengths: extreme gameplay and a complex, historical storyline. Released in March 2019, by August Sekiro had sold over 3.8 million copies.
As with Dark Souls, a majority of the action is based on stealth, exploration and “boss battles.” However Sekiro creates a rich narrative that allows the player to explore a fictional Japan in the Sengoku period (1467-1600 C.E.) while immersing themselves in Buddhist mythology. Since its release, the game has received universal acclaim, with critics calling it “refreshingly new” and “akin to a waltz.” THIS GAME SOLD OVER 3.8 MILLION COPIES IN ITS FIRST 5 MONTHS Ludovic Castro, a PhD in theoretical chemistry, is a big fan of Japanese RPGs. He often writes about his favorite series, Megami Tensei.

In 21st Century Middle East wars (Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Syria, et al) initiated by the US, resis tance forces have been prevailing. The plan to subjugate the region – with direct force or by proxies – was to secure its resources and dictate terms of access to all other players.

By J.-K. Huysmans Translated by Brendan King
“Few late 19th Century art critics were more clearly on the right side of history than J.-K. Huysmans. To read his essay, Exhibition of the Independents in 1880, is to discover an anticipation of the 20th Century’s aesthetic preferences...King displays both considerable knowledge and easy humour...” – Nicholas White, The Times Literary Supplement
First published in 1883, but never before completely translated into English, this collection of J.-K. Huysmans’ art criticism reveals the author of Against Nature to be as combative in his aesthetic as in his literary opinions.
At a time when the Impressionists were ridiculed or ignored, he defiantly proclaimed Degas the best painter in France and applauded the works of artists whose genius and popularity have been confirmed by time: Paul Gauguin, Mary Cassatt, Edouard Manet and Berthe Morisot, among others. He contrasts his positive reviews with lambasting assessments of the paintings in the Official Salon. This exciting writing and these FIRST ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THIS ideas are as relevant today as they were in 1883.

Divine ‘drunkenness’ is a common theme in Middle Eastern poetry. The wine is the nectar of love, and inebriation produces unconventional behavior, even hints of madness, marking the lover as lost to the ordinary world. Their poetry is often saturated with deep wisdom, stark reflections on truth (in vino veritas) and the prayerful yearning found throughout all mystical traditions.
The book is divided into three parts: The Obstacle (Mind), The Battleground (Heart), and Deliverance (The Journey). POETS INTOXICATED BY DIVINE LOVE

By M
“The end of all true Yoga is to bring God realization to humanity, which is union of the lower self with the Lord God of Truth within...Nature awaits man’s discovery of his power to reclaim his own lost birthright, the gift of the spirit. This lost birthright, when man seeks union with his Innermost, brings a greatly expanded consciousness to his mind.” – M
The mysterious author M, teacher of Samael Aun Weor and H. P. Blavatsky, and author of The Dayspring of Youth, was writing this final work when he died.
It conveys all the power and clarity of M’s previous book, yet it is bigger, deeper, and broader, delving into our relationships with nature, God, and each other. Most importantly, M gives the reader an inspiring and urgent call to action, to awaken our latent powers and restore our rightful place in the cosmos: as awakened, kind, responsible human beings. LAST BOOK OF SAMUEL AUN WEOR’S TEACHER M is a mysterious, anonymous author of 2 books in the 1930s which became critical grounding for Gnosticism and the education of Samuel Ann Weor. Possible identities include Master Morya, one of the teachers of H.P. Blavatsky, the American painter John K. Thurston and Paul Brunton.

By Samael Aun Weor
“The fundamental objective of our esoteric studies is to reach Christification... The inner Christ is what counts. Unfortunately, people only think about an historical Christ, and this is how they separate themselves from reality. They forget that Christ is what is, which always has been, and what will always be. They forget that Christ is the life that beats in each atom, as it beats in each Sun. They forget that Christ vibrates from instant to instant, from moment to moment. To incarnate Christ is fundamental.” – Samael Aun Weor

Constable Simon Pearce doesn’t believe in love. It’s a dangerous proposition for many people in 19th Century London, but for an ambitious cop climbing Scotland Yard’s greasy career ladder, it’s out of the question.
He doesn’t believe in monsters, either, though there seem to be a lot of them about. Whether it’s a ghost haunting a London churchyard where men seek men’s companionship, a phantom hound in Edinburgh that’s hellbent on revenge, or a murdered businessman who won’t stay dead on a cross-country train – the mysterious has a way of finding Constable Pearce, regardless of his desires. But are these haunted happenings truly supernatural? Or is something worse – something thoroughly human – to blame?

Twelve-year-old Eddie has always loved his grandfather and looks forward to their fly- fishing trips, idyllic day-long floats on the sweet waters of their home river. Eddie finds a needed retreat from the turmoil of his home life. But now Gramps, the charismatic owner of a local sporting goods store, has been hooked by dementia.

This change in circumstance spawns numerous events, some comic: the unfortunate incident of the deceased carp; how it comes about that Eddie’s dad throws up at his mom’s wedding.

“I devoured this book – an appalling pocket of cinematic history, delightfully explored and obsessively researched. Andy Milligan is one scary man.” – John Waters
Now back in print in a luxurious, large-format slipcased special edition, this is the definitive account of the sleazy heyday of 42nd Street, the people who ran its theaters and the cultural circ- umstances surrounding the birth of gay cinema. Milligan, a compelling lone wolf in cinema history, was a dressmaker, actor and puppeteer, who cranked out films like Bloodthirsty Butchers and The Body Beneath on threadbare budgets. Their many limitations made Milligan a laughing stock. NEW, EXTRAVAGANT LUXURY EDITION But by providing context and pathos, the author OF THE SEAMY CLASSIC shows these chaotic films and their creator in a new and sympathetic light.
■ McDonough has updated the text for this new high-end coffee table edition, which features over 1,000 new photos ■ Produced by film director Nicolas Winding Refn, owner of Milligan’s theatre and movie assets ■ This is a new edition of the 2001 title from Chicago Review Press

78..|..SCB DISTRIBUTORS..|..SPRING 2020 FEAR: The Autobiography of Dario Argento
By Dario Argento
With candor, Dario Argento, the maverick auteur known as the Horror Fellini, shares compelling anecdotes about his life in La Dolce Vita Rome.
Born into a family that breathed cinema, Argento was a bored loner, voraciously devouring books and films. His life-changing moment was an encounter with Sergio Leone, who hired him and Bernardo Bertolucci to write the script for Once Upon a Time in the West (1968). Inspired to change the history of cinema, his first film, The Bird with the Crystal Plumage (1970), did just that, and soon after he created the groundbreaking classics Deep Red (1975) and Suspiria (1977), capturing his personal demons on celluloid.
In this tale of an inspirational film director making his mark on the world, one glimpses the anxieties of a driven, but shy, man, in love with cinema and life itself and fueled by his passions and obsessions. AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF ITALY’S MASTER OF HORROR ■ Adapted from the Italian translation and illustrated with rare photographs ■ This is the first time Argento has discussed his career in his own words
Dario Argento was born and lives in Rome, Italy. He has directed his influential thriller and horror films since the 1960s. www.instagram.com/darioargento_official FEAR: The Autobiography of Dario Argento
