Description
Lauren Cook's I Love Shopping--beloved on the Internet and IRL--is back in print.
Chickens have a collective soul. Heaven is full of the skateboarders you kissed in middle school. If the algorithm is its own hell, Lauren Cook, author of the critically (and uncritically) acclaimed Sex Goblin, stands in front of it fully armored. I Love Shopping invites its readers to inhabit a world just like ours, reflected through a big, benevolent funhouse mirror.
First published in a limited edition, this will be the first trade edition of the cult classic.
