Punk Rocker is the much anticipated sequel to “L.A. Punk Rocker”: top author Brenda Perlin’s best-selling punk anthology.
I’m so proud to have contributed two short stories to this collection. LA Punk Rocker was one of my favourite reading pleasures last year and brought back a lot of rebel memories. I am thrilled to be published in the same volume as Brenda Perlin and Alan Wynzel.
Here you will find a collection of short stories from those who were there in the early days. Hard core musical anarchists who saw it all, heard it all, did it all – and survived to tell their stories.
Along with Brenda and the West Coast punks, Punk Rocker features rebels, writers, commentators and street kids from all over America – talking about the music, the fashion, the attitude, the passion, the lifestyle and, of course, the bands who made it all happen.
Meet people who discovered punk’s new dawn – and those who were there for its sunset, in the ramshackle mausoleum of the Chelsea Hotel.
Backstage, in the clubs, in the gigs, in hotel rooms with the band, on the streets –Brenda was there. She saw it all. And so did her friends.
Punk Rocker. If you missed it…what are you waiting for?
Sounds really good, Chris. Must be exciting to be a part of such a great tribute to such a wonderful bygone era of music. 🙂
It is very exciting. Thank you 🙂
On my tbr list. I was a punk at the dawn even though I was a very young punk rocker but I was there.
Excellent, thank you. 🙂
Good luck! It sounds like a great read!
Thanks Olga ❤
Great! Writing book 2 is every bit as much of an accomplishment as the first. Hugs
Thanks Teagan! Hugs!
Congratulations, Christoph! Sounds fascinating, though I don’t know tons about punk. I especially, tho, like the do-it-yourself attitude of much of the fashion and the independence/disestablishment of it.
I agree Leigh. There was so much going on within that era and within that movement. Thanks for commenting 🙂
Thank you Christoph. Was so pleased you wanted to participate. I adore the two stories you wrote. They are perfection! Wouldn’t expect anything less.
Thank you. All inspired by the brilliant first book – shows how good stories move you to look at your own life and remind you of your past!
Fantastic! It sounds very interesting.
Thnaks Pat. I’ve read some of the other stories and they are very interesting. 🙂
So exciting! Have to now add this to my TBR. Can’t wait to get to The Gamblers in a few books from now. 🙂
Thank you. I hope you’ll enjoy it Poker lady 😉
Indeed! 🙂
This book is phenomenal! Thank you so much for featuring it, Christoph. ❤
Thanks Hunter 🙂
I dig the cover concept. Very eye catching.
Thanks. I agree, it’s been done very nicely. Compliments to the designer 🙂
Love short stories, and if you authored a couple of them, the book will stand out.
Thanks Murielle. Coming from a gifted author like yourself, that’s quite a compliment. Much love ❤
Can’t wait to read it. Sounds great!
Thanks Stephany ❤
From my interview with Brenda, it sounds like it was a wild time. Even if I had been old enough for it I don’t think it would have been my scene, but it is great to have those kind of memories.
