THREE NEW BOOKS FROM ALTX PRESS

BOULDER, Colorado (June 24, 2002) -- Alt-X, where the digerati meet the
literati, announces the publication of three new PrintOnDemand books.

The three books encompass three generations of innovative fiction.

Twilight of the Bums: George Chambers and Raymond Federman's "Twilight of the Bums" establishes these two veteran experimentalists as the Abbott and Costello of postmodernism.

Making Scenes: Adrienne Eisen's debut novel, "Making Scenes," brings back to life the rival tradition of American writing from Henry Miller to Kathy Acker.

.echo: With Alan Sondheim's novel of mystical eroticism, ".echo" readers will lose themselves in a net fiction charged with sex, obsession and codework.

The three new books join the three recently published books of Alt-X
Press POD:  Mark Amerika's collection, "How To Be an Internet Artist";
the novel "Cows" by Ronald Sukenick, this year's winner of the American
Academy of Arts and Letters Award for innovative fiction; and Eugene
Thacker's "Hard_Code" anthology of experimental data prose.

Producing books by, for and through the computer, in both e-book and
PrintOnDemand formats, Alt-X has already launched its highly successful
e-book series which is now followed by the appearance of the POD versions.

They are available for credit card purchase at altx.com, booksurge.com,
half.com, and other channels.

Reviewers may refer to the free complete e-book postings now available in PDF and Palm Pilot versions at www.altx.com/ebooks.
