“This is a rad anthology based on the website of the same name, a vibrant collection of submissions by Seattleites past and present about the places, things, and vibes that defined them and the city outside of the mainstream, which are slowly vanishing. Told perfectly in a DIY/zine style with nostalgic and poignant text, drawings, photos, and cartoons, it details the physical, emotional, and spiritual institutions that have represented much of the soul of weird Seattle over the past several decades. This anthology pays tribute to and preserves the eccentric, funky, and ever-resistant spirit of Seattle.”
—Andy, Elliott Bay Book Company, Seattle, WA
“Part eulogy, part cultural cautionary tale, this book is Seattle’s collective conscience — reminding us of who we used to be.”
— Jamie Ford, author of Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet, with deep Seattle roots
