I am Gonzo. My Dirty Italian Zines Fuck Serious Scientific Books

Edited by Emanuele De Donno, Luca Pucci

This revised edition of I Am Gonzo includes three new erotic stories and supplementary matter tobring it up to date as a new issue of the series. A porn addict amateur who collects dirty Italian comics inan “animalistic” way, Gonzo applies a conservative technique whereby he hides these questionablyviewable images within scientific libraries. This book addresses a widespread form of collecting thatavoids the subject of the “arty” comic strip and instead dives headlong into obscene material and theviewer’s experience of it. This mega-collection of pornographic Italian comics faithfully presents the genrefrom its sensual, sexual-phobic beginnings (1960-1970) to its porno-violent shift, between the years 1985and 2000. Voyeuristic and chock-full of thematic variants, from transgenderism and homoeroticism to fairytale, zombie, and cyber porn.
