Reviews
"The Village Voice gave me my start as a writer. Romano's colorful oral history, The Freaks Came Out to Write , serves as both a personal reminder of what and who made the Voice so unique and a broader history of the coolest newspaper that ever was."-- Sloane Crosley, author of Grief Is for People, "Romano debuts with a phenomenal oral history....Brimming with riveting anecdotes and capturing its subject's rollicking spirit, this is a remarkable portrait of the 'nation's first alternative newspaper.'"-- Publishers Weekly, "Romano debuts with a phenomenal oral history....Brimming with riveting anecdotes and capturing its subject's rollicking spirit, this is a remarkable portrait of the "nation's first alternative newspaper."-- Publishers Weekly, "The Voice was the living center of the marginal, the weird, the rebellious. In the space and time of reading this wild ride of a book, I returned to that creative, crazy margin, and I think many other readers will, too."-- Maureen Corrigan, NPR's "Fresh Air", "A delicious oral history...[ The Freaks Came out to Write ] sounds uncannily like the paper itself as it was experienced throughout its glory years and the years after."-- London Review of Books, "[A] well-made disco ball of a book -- it's big, discursive, ardent, intellectual and flecked with gossip. "The Freaks Came Out to Write" may be the best history of a journalistic enterprise I've ever read." -- Dwight Garner, The New York Times, "Romano makes a zesty book debut with a polyphonic oral history of the iconic Village Voice ."-- Kirkus, "An uncensored look at the freewheeling, kaleidoscope lives of the people who wrote for the Voice . This book is essential reading for anyone who cares about politics, culture, history, or democracy. Romano makes me wish I was twenty again, reading the Voice while trying to score a futon."-- Gary Shteyngart, author of Our Country Friends, "The Voice was the greatest paper ever and Romano captures the wild energy of what it was like to be a writer there."-- Touré, author of I Would Die 4 You: How Prince Became an Icon and host of Touré Show, "[A] well-made disco ball of a book--it's big, discursive, ardent, intellectual and flecked with gossip. The Freaks Came Out to Write may be the best history of a journalistic enterprise I've ever read." -- Dwight Garner, The New York Times

Synopsis
A rollicking history of America's most iconic weekly newspaper told through the voices of its legendary writers, editors, and photographers. You either were there or you wanted to be. A defining New York City institution co-founded by Norman Mailer, The Village Voice was the first newspaper to cover hip-hop, the avant-garde art scene, and Off-Broadway with gravitas. It reported on the AIDS crisis with urgency and seriousness when other papers dismissed it as a gay disease. In 1979, the Voice 's Wayne Barrett uncovered Donald Trump as a corrupt con artist before anyone else was paying attention. It invented new forms of criticism and storytelling and revolutionized journalism, spawning hundreds of copycats. With more than 200 interviews, including two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, Colson Whitehead, cultural critic Greg Tate, gossip columnist Michael Musto, and feminist writers Vivian Gornick and Susan Brownmiller, former Voice writer Tricia Romano pays homage to the paper that saved NYC landmarks from destruction and exposed corrupt landlords and judges. With interviews featuring post-punk band, Blondie, sportscaster Bob Costas, and drummer Max Weinberg, of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band, in this definitive oral history, Romano tells the story of journalism, New York City and American culture--and the most famous alt-weekly of all time.
