Description
An early poetry collection, produced in 1991 under Arnzen’s nascent imprint, Mastication Publications. Features twenty-one speculative poems, many of which are original to this collection. Chew also features fantastic artwork from five remarkable artists who had worked with Arnzen in various small press magazines: Marge Simon, Bob Crouch, Ree Young, Virginia Rubio and Renate Muller. Numbered to 234 copies. Praise: “A collection of well-developed work from one of the best horror poets in the small press. Michael Arnzen makes one cringe with the words of Chew and a few pages later you will giggle over the imagery.” –Atsatrohn “Arnzen reveals the fearful power of love and the unease it can generate. Good stuff!” –Jim Lee, Scavenger’s Newsletter “Concisely brilliant…slyly macabre.” –Denise Dumars, Dumars Reviews
