explains this issue was originally designed to be an all art issue and was meant to be published as issue 5. As a 100% art book proved problematic, Dave Eggers met with the creative minds of They Might Be Giants and came up with a new plan to have each piece in the issue be paired with music provided by TMBG. This took more time and ended up as issue 6, a coverless hardback the size of a photo album with a music CD in the back.<br><br>There's still a great deal of artwork in this issue along with pieces analyzing art or artists. Like many of the early McSweeney's, the quality of the work is wildly uneven. The fiction pieces are all very short and the range of topics is huge and unfocused. For the most part, TMBG's music is well-suited to this funhouse ride.<br><br>This is a very ambitious issue and I can't say they completely pulled it off. My favorite contributions were<br>"The Girl with Bangs" by Zadie Smith with a terrific full-length song "Bangs" by TMBG<br>"Excerpt from 99 Blue Rocks" by Candy Jernigan, which includes about 10 lovely drawings of rocks done by the late Jernigan and is scored by her partner Philip Glass's composition, "Modern Love Waltz"<br>"Eulogy for Saul Steinberg" by his friend Ian Frazier, a sweet reminiscence of the artist with several of his drawings and a nice song, "West Virginia", by John Linnell of TMBG. <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss6.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_217086330" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_217086330"> </span> </span><!-- reviewVoteInfo --><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_217086330" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_217086330" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_217086330"> </span></span></span> <!-- reviewMods --><span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/RobertOK" target="_top">RobertOK</a> | Jun 13, 2022 | <a href="/review/217086330"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> <!-- controlItems --></div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_64832266" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/113230" data-workid="113230" class="" ><img src="https://pics.cdn.librarything.com/picsizes/68/55/685585f7405bbe359396d424767426b41414141_v5.jpg" srcset="https://pics.cdn.librarything.com/picsizes/15/92/159295654f7181559396d424767444941414141_v5.jpg 2x, https://pics.cdn.librarything.com/picsizes/5a/47/5a470f06a16efd259396d424767417341514141_v5.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div>Didn't get much out of this one.

Unfortunately, most of the art included is not very good, but some of it is at least amusing---and the short stories are pretty good for the most part. Likewise for the music, the tracks that accompany the art selections are mostly just okay, but the ones that go along with the stories are generally more substantial, longer and better. <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss7.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_80790046" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_80790046"> </span> </span><!-- reviewVoteInfo --><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_80790046" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_80790046" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_80790046"> </span></span></span> <!-- reviewMods --><span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/AshRyan" target="_top">AshRyan</a> | Dec 12, 2011 | <a href="/review/80790046"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> <!-- controlItems --></div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_18092839" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/113230" data-workid="113230" class="" ><img src="https://pics.cdn.librarything.com/picsizes/68/55/685585f7405bbe359396d424767426b41414141_v5.jpg" srcset="https://pics.cdn.librarything.com/picsizes/15/92/159295654f7181559396d424767444941414141_v5.jpg 2x, https://pics.cdn.librarything.com/picsizes/5a/47/5a470f06a16efd259396d424767417341514141_v5.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div><a href="https://thmazing.blogspot.com/2005/12/self-redemption.html" rel="nofollow" target="_top">http://thmazing.blogspot.com/2005/12/self-redemption.html</a></div><div id="rfd_18092839" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_18092839"> </span> </span><!-- reviewVoteInfo --><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_18092839" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_18092839" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_18092839"> </span></span></span> <!-- reviewMods --><span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/thmazing" target="_top">thmazing</a> | Apr 22, 2008 | <a href="/review/18092839"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> <!-- controlItems --></div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_15436585" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/113230" data-workid="113230" class="" ><img src="https://pics.cdn.librarything.com/picsizes/68/55/685585f7405bbe359396d424767426b41414141_v5.jpg" srcset="https://pics.cdn.librarything.com/picsizes/15/92/159295654f7181559396d424767444941414141_v5.jpg 2x, https://pics.cdn.librarything.com/picsizes/5a/47/5a470f06a16efd259396d424767417341514141_v5.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div>Can't go wrong with a TMBG inspired McSweeney's!
