For the first time ever, all four issues -- yes, including the infamous "Rape" issue -- of Jim and Debbie Goad's legendary and seismically controversial magazine, ANSWER Me!, have been collected under one cover. Nine-Banded books is very proud to bring this sumptuous compendium into existence, and we've spared no expense in getting it right. Extras include a new interview with Jim Goad, a full-size enclosure of "The Rape Game," and previously unpublished material. Long before anyone worried about "trigger warnings" or "safe spaces" or "rape culture," there was ANSWER Me! -- "The Only Magazine Worth Hating." Tell it to your mother. Tell it to the judge.

If Andy Warhol could have anticipated the Internet, he would have said it’s where everyone will be stalked for at least 15 minutes. Notorious underground author Jim Goad describes himself as “a lowly neutrino in the vast universe of celebrity,” yet he attracts a certain breed of demented fan that treats him as if he’s the second coming of Christ - that is, until they feel he’s somehow snubbed them, at which point he transforms into Satan. The Headache Factory documents Jim’s extensive experiences fending off fans who morphed into stalkers. By turns terrifying and amusing, the book demonstrates how social media enables the antisocial to reach out and touch anyone they want - even if their target doesn’t want to be touched.

What do most people think of Idaho? Well, see, that's the problem - they don't think of Idaho. Despite its breathtaking natural beauty and the fact that it's crammed to the gills with eccentrics and freethinkers, Idaho may as well be the moon as far as the rest of America is concerned. 
Jim Goad recently spent a week in Idaho mingling with state troopers, political extremists, collegiate progressives, and heartbreakingly friendly locals. Spending most of the week in the wilderness allowed him to examine one of the most pervasive yet ignored forms of cultural bigotry - the endless disdain that "urban supremacists" have for rural people. In this case, the countryside wins by a landslide.
