TMT 089: Johnny Temple
Manage episode 150020675 series 57796
For the past 20 years, independent publisher Akashic Books has blazed a path of nonconformity and subversiveness through literature. Johnny Temple, the bassist of 90s alt-rock band Girls Against Boys, funded the fledgling press with the spoils of a major label advance the group received. In the pass two decades, the Brooklyn house has released over 400 books including titles from Marlon James, Arthur Nersesian and imprints from Dennis Cooper and Mobb Deep's Prodigy, plus the bestseller "adult children's book" Go the F**k to Sleep. In 2016, Akashic Books continues its eclectic streak with the publication of both Ziggy Marley's cookbook and Ron Kovic's Born on the 4th of July follow-up.
