Printaissance
Printaissance is a perzine / litzine from Rob Bowen, a.k.a. The Angry Hippie, where he shares random thoughts, poems (both old and new exclusive works), and an occasional topical, insightful rant. With plenty of biting or insightful commentary and some bits of humor, Printaissance Poetry Periodicals are Rob's contribution to the zine community. The last bastion of of the printed word!
Issues
Issue 1
This first issue takes a hard look at the supposed death of print, the history of zines, and has some insight into the man holding the pen. Kicking off this inaugural issue with more prose than poetry, Rob puts his ranty hat on and goes to town. And when he gets back from town boy, does he have some stories to share...sorry, though...he forgot to pick you up the fries you asked for. What do you expect, he was probably stoned.
