Mike's Corner
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mike's Corner is a 148-page collection of short stories written by Phish bassist Mike Gordon, first published in 1997. The book also features illustrations by Gordon and his ex-wife, Priscilla Foster.
The book's official card catalog description reads:
In an effort to bridge the gap between the dream world and reality, Phish bassist Mike Gordon has been carving his daydreams into words since his high school days in Mr. Hooper's class. Until now, Gordon's absurdist send-ups, farcical rants, and surreal flights of fancy have been published only as "Mike's Corner," a column in Doniac Schvice, Phish's newsletter. However, with the aid of modern technology, they have now been collected in a book and further embellished with strange yet tantalizing illustrations by Gordon and his "sweet one," Priscilla. This demented collection of fifty-five off-the-wall short stories is intended to cause the reader to "see the world from a slightly warped and more electric parallax," but these offbeat, humorous stories will also give readers a better view of the truly unusual mind of Mike Gordon.
