Jaffe, Harold 15 Serial Killers: Docufictions
USA Raw Dog Screaming Press 2003 097450310X / 9780974503103 First Edition Private Press Trade Paperback Fine
Taking as his text Georges Batailles insight that only at the extremes is there freedom critically acclaimed guerrilla writer Harold Jaffe documents Batailles aperçu with 15 bone-chilling illustrations. Manson, Starkweather, Speck, Son of Sam, the Night Stalker, Aileen Wuornos, the Unabomber, Dahmer, Bundy, Gacy, Kemper, Kevorkian and Kissinger are not merely present and accounted for, they are rendered into a reality TV that youve never seen before. Widely praised as a virtuoso stylist, Jaffe employs a number of narrative stratagems, such as letters, monologues, interviews and unsituated dialogues to torque the flattened, cartoon-like serial killers into a potently unnerving third dimension. As in False Positive, Straight Razor, Eros Anti-Eros and Sex for the Millennium, Jaffes docufictions are at the same time lucid, intricate, gruesome, infinitely sad, and hilarious. At the end we are left with a profoundly incisive commentary on Americas insatiable consumption of extremity, conveniently masked as moral condemnation.

Jaffe Harold TERROR-DOT-GOV
USA Raw Dog Screaming Press 2005 1933293098 / 9781933293097 First Edition Private Press Trade Paperback Fine
As in Harold Jaffes two previous docufiction collections False Positive and 15 Serial Killers the author of Terror-Dot-Gov selects then treats his texts such that the reader is incapable of distinguishing between fact and fiction. That ambiguity permits Jaffe to cunningly tease out the contradictions and subtexts of official news or information and torque it into what it so often is fundamentally: jingoism xenophobia and propaganda. Jaffes subject in Terror-Dot-Gov is not the everywhere-represented illicit terrorism so much as licit institutionalized terrorism and he assaults his subject from multiple angles: razor-sharp satire precisely cadenced rhetoric faux-reportage and unsituated dialogues (Jaffes term referring to his trademark talking heads with perfect pitch). The result is virtuosic and paradoxical: a prodigious display of firepower in the cause of peace.
