Cogently edited by Abigail Susik, Resurgence! presents a selection from the twelve-issue run of the (very) small press, agit-prop zine of the same name published from 1964 to 1967.  These zines were the print manifestation of the anarcho-surrealist Resurgence Youth Movement (RYM) led  – or, at least, most closely associated with with – Jonathan Leake, that began life as an ultra-low budget mimeograph publication and maintained a "lo-fi" print æsthetic throghout its run.

Also included is a series of essays by Susik along with Paul Leake, Maggie Wrigley Leake, Sean Lovitt and Penelope Rosemont that provide a much needed biographical backgorund on Jonathan Leake.  In addtion, taken together, they work to provide a publication history of Resurgence, its relationship to the RYM and then to contextualize both within the era of "the sixties" in which they flowered. 

AND, there's also a selection form Jonathan Leake's own Root and Branch: A Radical Sixties Odyssey that was orignally published in 1992, in the same lo-fi, double-spaced, typed manuscript format. 

Timely and inspiring!

Print run of only 500 .  You have been warned.

Eberhardt Press sez:

Our Resurgence book is filled with photographs, zine pages, ephemera, and other fascinating documentation from the history of the RYM and Leake's personal archive. Much of this material has never been published before.
