Guide to the Serpent's Tail/High Risk Archives ca. 1990-1997 MSS 86
High Risk Books was founded in New York City in 1993 by Ira Silverberg as an imprint of Serpent's Tail Press in London. Dedicated to publishing challenging, innovative, and progressive literature, High Risk Books transcended the traditional boundaries of publishing to provoke and inspire a new generation of writers and readers. While connected by a certain subversive impulse, authors as diverse as William Burroughs, Kathy Acker, Tim Dlugos, Diamanda Galas, Robert Glary Indiana, June Jordan, Cookie Mueller, Lynne Tillman, Pagan Kennedy, John Giorno, Sapphire and many others are published by High Risk. As a small press, High Risk played a crucial role in providing a space for writers, many just beginning their careers, who would otherwise have found it difficult to get published in mainstream houses. In January 1997, High Risk Books ceased operation due to disagreements with the Serpent's Tail office in London. Serpent's Tail Press continues to publish from the United Kingdom.
