My copy of this arrived today (bought after it was mentioned on the
P-list) and my first thought was: wtf?!?!

If Hysterical Typography isn't yet a genre, it is now. The title page
appears almost 50 pages in and pages are often concrete poetry,
graphic novel, photoillustration, ad design, unreadable layers of
print, blank except for one sentence, etc. And it's Mason &
Dixon-sized. No idea if it's any good but it's a nutso feat of
publishing.
