Flats and Quake by Rudolph Wurlitzer
Two counter-cultural classics available in one back-to-back edition.Flats is a post-apocalyptic exploration of the human self. Submerged amidst a cast of faceless characters named after ruined American cities who compete over a shrinking fringe of space, Flats is a modern masterpiece of the counterculture.
Quake chronicles the unraveling of society after an earthquake strikes '60s Los Angeles. By painting a bleak picture of what people are capable of doing to one another in extreme circumstances, Quake is nihilistic and haunting, as well as uncomfortably foreboding. And more relevant than ever.
Rudolph Wurlitzer is an acclaimed screenwriter and the author of The Drop Edge of Yonder, Quake, Flats, Slow Fade, and the nonfiction book, Hard Travel to Sacred Places. Erik Davis is the author of TechGnosis: Myth, Magic, and Mysticism in the Age of Information (Harmony Books, 1998) and is a continuing contributor to Bookforum, The Wire, ArtByte, LA Weekly, Gnosis, Village Voice, and Wired.
