The answer to, and winner (if any) for,
our last contest question of:
In 2000, this writer self published 100 copies of a manifesto
attacking the pretentiousness of mainstream 'literary' publi****ng.
He put it on Amazon. Unfortunately he was the only one
who bought any copies.
BUT a national magazine saw it and reprinted
it in their 2001 July/August issue. It became a sensation.
He later flushed out the article in a 2002 book. And
its a doozy! I highly recommend it.
Name the author and the book and
for extra credit (though not necessary to win) the
magazine that brought the essay to the nation's attention.
IS
B.R.Myers, "A Reader's Manifesto - an attack on the Growing
Pretentiousness in American Literary Prose". It was originally
published in the Atlantic Monthly magazine. Fo/mo/info see
the Wikipedia entry.
