Boogorama: Selected Articles, Speeches, Screeds of Dennis "Boog" Highberger, 1983 through 2018 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781734638103)

Boogorama is a collection of articles, speeches, screeds, and letters by Dennis "Boog" Highberger, a former mayor of Lawrence, Kansas, and a long-time participant in the international mail art network. It looks like an autobiography but it's really a love letter to Lawrence, Kansas, and all the weird and wonderful people who live there. It's also a love letter to letters themselves, and to mail artists around the world. Contents include "a juxtapositionist manifesto," "I Joyfully Carry My Burden of Dreams," and the text of the mayoral proclamation of International Dadaism Month, which consisted of a random number of days in 2006 that were selected by drawing numbers out of a hat. Andrei Codrescu says, "Everything in here is delicious and carnal and wise ... the dada mayor wrote for the Time of the Plague, when we should eat his book with music."
