YŮCK Imposes Yuletide Cheer
NEWS BRIEF: Failed writer unveils critical NEW, RARE holiday consumption opportunity for qualified Americans. Click BUY NOW.
Dear Friends,
This holiday season consider purchasing family, lovers, and even yourself something weird: YUCK, my second book, published by WA-based indie press Wandering Aengus. Feel free to judge YUCK by its cover and preorder on Amazon today.
Influential author and critic
says of YUCK:“Barret Baumgart’s appropriately tangled and marvelous ode to the Joshua tree—part poetry, part cultural history, part confrontation with a Mojave mystery—deftly honors one of the Southwest’s most compelling and symbolically rich inhabitants. It also confirms Baumgart’s status as one of the leading chroniclers of the California weird.”
Please help me spread the word by sharing widely with friends and colleagues. Social media posts are also super important!

If you know someone important out there who you think would dig this book and needs a copy ASAP please feel free to reach out to me by responding to this email.
YUCK officially drops March 25, 2025. The book is 130 pages.
EVENTS:
A release party is planned for Wednesday, March 26th at Angel City Brewery in downtown LA featuring Deanne Stillman, author of the nonfiction cult classic, Twentynine Palms, a Los Angeles Times bestseller that Hunter Thompson called, “A strange and brilliant story by an important American writer.”
Some days, depending on the weather, YUCK appears to be blazing an icky little path through Amazon’s least competitive category, “Desert Ecosystems.” Purchase your copy before it passes into extinction, like the Joshua Tree itself…
Happy holidays to you all and thank you for your continued support!
