Hiroshima Yeah! #99 (May 2013) (zine)



Another fine  8.5 by 11 inches black and white, cut and paste, four pager publication. We have on the front page Mark`s amazingly realistic, sarcastic and melancholic  poetry i.e observations of daily life indeed.  Then there`s Gary Simmons ongoing serial about life in jail (1.5 years behind bars…). He should write a book about it too. Yes it`s that good. Next there`s some music, concerts and DVD reviews. Mark seems to enjoy Vic  Chesnutt`s music. I never heard about him before, think I`ll do some serious music investigation here. We close this little zine with `holiday  season `a short story courtesy of Mark Ritchie himself. A kinda weird ditty but then again this is Hiroshima Yeah! Not the New-Yorker. So sit down in your favorite chair, have a cold beer \ cider and enjoy the ride folks!!!
