This title presents New Orleans tales that may never be told again. It is an anthology of 'zines' from and about New Orleans, commemorative of the people and spirit of the city. For years, the punk and zine community in New Orleans has thrived, producing beautifully rendered volumes of stories and artwork. Their authors have poured their hearts out on home-printed pages, commenting on everything from music, art and bicycles to politics, gender, class, gentrification and, of course, the city itself. Reprinted here in their original format are selections from over a dozen seminal zines, including: Chainbreaker , Nosedive , Crude Noise , Rocket Queen , I Hate This Part of Texas and Chihuahua and Pitbull . Many of the originals have been lost or destroyed: in the wake of Katrina, Stories Care Forgot serves not only as a preservation of artwork, but as an attempt to aid in rebuilding the city that shaped it.
