Crucify Me Again
Deliberately ignoring the conventions of autobiography, Mark Manning, the artist formerly known as Zodiac Mindwarp, presents a vivid series of incidents from his life, illustrated with his own drawing and linocuts. Funny, brutal and above all rigorously honest, the writer has explored parts of his psyche most people would rather believe didn't exist. Documenting the rare moments of lucidity amongst the spiralling depravity of his ten years within the moral quagmire of bad sex, worse drugs and truly horrific rock and roll, it's a wonder he's here to spill the beans -- warts and sexually transmitted diseases and all -- at all. The bruised sensitivity of a poet raises these episodes above the squalidness of their surroundings. The mark of Manning's poetic genius elevates these finer feelings no matter what unfortunate cards he's been dealt. Manning's writing has been compared to William Burroughs for the profound satire that runs through the core of much of his work and Charles Bukowski for his lowlife poetry and subtle combination of tenderness and toughness.

Bad Wisdom
Having exhausted (and been exhausted by) the young man's religion of rock and roll, the authors undertake an epic journey to the North Pole to sacrifice an icon of Elvis Presley. Two very different accounts of their journey clash and mesh as the pilgrims venture forth into the frozen wastes at the top of the world. Bill Drummond and Mark Manning were involved with two of pop music's most esoteric creations: Zodiac Mindwarp and the KLF.
Body Language
A gay Chicago reporter returns to his Wisconsin hometown—and a morass of lust, lies, and lethal family secrets in this “neatly twisted” mystery (Booklist). An unexpected windfall has given burned-out Chicago journalist Mark Manning the chance to reconnect with his boyhood roots. With the blessing of his lover, Neil, he leaves the Windy City to return to Dumont, Wisconsin, to take over the town paper. His long-awaited family reunion is cut short when his cousin Suzanne is bludgeoned to death just before Christmas dinner. Before she dies, she whispers something to Manning: the name of her son. Was she expressing a mother’s dying wish for the future welfare of her child? Or revealing the identity of her murderer? When Manning ends up in the local law’s sights, he’s suddenly racing against time to clear his own name and smoke out a killer. With no lack of suspects, from a troubled homophobe to a lesbian activist to a housekeeper, the clock is ticking on a story that could be the biggest of Manning’s career—if he lives long enough to write it. Body Language is the third book in Michael Craft’s Mark Manning series, which begins with Flight Dreams and Eye Contact.
