While You Were Sleeping : The Worst of, Hardcover by Gastman, Roger; Fulcher, Zio (EDT), ISBN 0764342029, ISBN-13 9780764342028, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This is a 496-page compilation of The Worst of While You Were Sleeping magazine. With over 900 images of the graffiti crazed, boozed-up partiers, and scantily clad ladies that were WYWS, this magazine content pushed the envelop of morality, sanity, and maturity.While You Were Sleeping was a graffiti and pop culture magazine started by graffiti supply business owner Roger Gastman when he was 19. Here are some of the greatest stories the magazine ever published-and many that are not so good. From stories on admirable serial killers and interviews with child stars to photos of graffiti and people's naked sisters, this book takes you into the dirty minds of Gastman and his team of juvenile delinquents. You've been warned.As you will no doubt see in this book, WYWS was anything but normal. Its success wasn't normal. Its lasting influence on pop culture wasn't normal. Its creator certainly wasn't normal. But it wasn't this lack of normalcy that caused WYWS to become such a unique entity. What made WYWS awesome was that everything seemed so absolutely normal to everybody involved. It wasn't about posturing or proving anything because WYWS didn't need that. It was WYWS and that came with its own set of rules and logic. Th includes a hilarious behind the scenes tale of the start of the magazine up to Gastman's departure, many reflections by contributors on stories they penned or photographed, extras photos from stories they didn't have room to print, interview subjects furious at what they said ten plus years ago – and even more furious that it is going to be printed again. The Worst Of is much more then just reprinted magazine pages – it's an embarrassment to everyone involved.
