In this bare-knuckled, frankly autobiographical collection, D.R. Haney shares a series of personal essays on his life, struggles, and artistic evolution; from punk rock malcontent in 1980s New York, to B-movie actor in the films of Roger Corman; to screenwriter on Friday the 13th: Part VII; to expatriated American writer in Serbia; to author of the celebrated underground novel Banned for Life. Consisting of material originally published by the popular online literary magazine The Nervous Breakdown, Subversia is written with the bracing candor and lyrical beauty that have earned Haney a well-deserved cult following worldwide.
Haneys blend of intoxicating content, sharply selected language, and unexpected humor is better than all the heroin in Serbia. Lenore Zion, author of My Dead Pets Are Interesting
Subversia is a wild, thrilling ride through D.R. Haneys childhood, where he happily poses naked for the director of his summer camp; to adolescence, when he worries that hes going to commit murder; to young adulthood, when he tries to borrow money from an ATM and contemplates taking a crowbar to his girlfriends head; to adulthood, where he writes screenplays that he considers so bad he unsuccessfully tries to report his to own death. It is a tribute to Haney's immense charisma, brutal honesty, and charming prose that in spite of everything he confesses, one cant help but fall hopelessly in love with him. - Jessica Anya Blau, author of The Summer of Naked Swim Parties and Drinking Closer to Home
D.R. Haney may very well be the illegitimate love child of Henry Rollins and David Sedaris. - Jeff Martin, author of My Dog Ate My Nobel Prize and editor of The Customer Is Always Wrong: The Retail Chronicles
Haney is absolutely compelling. Youll want to read his pieces over and over, and each time youll marvel at how he took you someplace utterly different than the time before. - Robin Antalek, author of The Summer We Fell Apart
The man writes a book. It is a great book of fiction. How will I ever top
this? he says. He walks around, and sits and thinks. Then he writes a great
book of essays. Ben Loory, author of Stories for Nighttime and Some for the Day
