The California Report: Bizarro L.A.

L.A. Bizarro—the #1 Bestseller is back! More than ten years after it first hit bookstores, this all-new edition of the beloved cult classic has been completely revised and munificently expanded with more than 75% new material, boasting scores of fresh discoveries and over 350 pages of original photos presented for the first time in luscious, lurid color.

With their wry wit and skewed perspective, arbiters of the outré Anthony Lovett and Matt Maranian steer readers on a circuitous, laugh-out-loud tour through the underbelly of greater Southern California: From the flagrantly infamous to the discreetly arcane, the little-known and the must-see are laid bare for visitors, armchair tourists, and locals alike.

“92% of the places mentioned in this book will give you crabs, so make sure to put lots of toilet paper on the seat, or better still, hover. And enjoy!”

—Samantha Bee, correspondent for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart

“Tony Lovett and Matt Maranian reveal Los Angeles as the kind of lurid phantasmagoria one usually experiences only after taking LSD and visiting a carnival midway. Give me another hit!”

—Mark Frauenfelder, blogger and founder of boingboing.net

“Bigger than life—bigger than me, in fact—the new L.A. Bizarro is fabulously current and utterly hilarious!”

—Ron Jeremy, New York Times bestselling author, scholar, well-hung cultural icon

“A splendid resource for those who want to experience the best of Los Angeles without joining in on the guinea pig part of the equation.”

—Mark Mothersbaugh, musician, artist, co-founder of Devo, mutant

“This psychotically funny book makes it dead certain that I will continue to see nothing in L.A. until I’m buried here.”

—Richard Lewis, comedian, actor, author, basket case

“Got morbid? Essential reading for boys and ghouls looking for cheap thrills and lethal laughs.”

—Cassandra Peterson (aka Elvira), Mistress of the Dark, B-movie queen, more than just a great set of boobs

“No one does The Lost City of the Angels with more tasty depravity and gothic humor.”

—Susie Bright, author, activist

“Lovett and Maranian know where the secrets are hidden and the bodies are buried. L.A. Bizarro is no ordinary guidebook—it’s a hysterically funny, psychedelic love letter to the wackiest city on Earth.”

—Larry Karaszewski, co-screenwriter Ed Wood and The People vs Larry Flynt

“Truly funny stuff. Highlights the often surreal experience of living in Los Angeles that can almost never be described accurately to casual visitors. Worth the price of purchase for the humor alone.”

—Anna Biller, writer, producer, director and star of Viva; all-around Renaissance woman

“This is the funniest book I have ever read.”

—Jennifer Traig, author of Devil in the Details: Stories from an Obsessive Girlhood
