Inside is a collection of creepy, crawly, crafty, corky, quirky, delectable, & delightful stories, poems, and a variety of words In homage to Ovid, Kafka, Kubrick, Vonnegut, Jr. & Big Willy Shakespeare, Zipp Toto wears his influences, like his heart.... In 2018, Zipp published his first novel, "The Memoirs of David H. Sinclair: Living Life to the Fullest " and luanched it on Evelyn Sinclair's 92nd birthday. Zipp, son of Skip, then embarked on publishing a book a month for a year "The Creature" marks his third book in the series, his April book. It was launched on his father's 80th birthday celebration Happy Birthday Big Poppa

Zipp Toto's debut novel, Beef, is a whirlwind of absurd realism, a slice of beef, so rare...it's raw. You are what you read.

Rap Poems by Zipp Toto's alter egos: Black Ghost & Toothless. In this collection, a perfection, a resurrection of inflection, in diction, a pinch-in, a vision revisioned, inner beats and rhythms, deep seeds are risen, an ineffectual fall, an intellectual stall, a call: in dissonance, a fragrant vibrance, this exuberance exhilarates to titillate and invigorate your senses, two cents is worth a dime, when dropped in rhyme, and just in time.

In part deux, the follow-up to Zipp Toto's debut novel, BEEF, the July book in his book-a-month for a year attempt, comes: Ground Beef. A groundbreaking, genre-bender that dissolves the lines between novel and poem, between writer and reader, between taste good and bad. In the continuing adventures of Heave Buchannan--man who can remember the future--we uncover through humour and puns and stuff, Alberta's fall and rise in the 20th centrury, an Orwellian critique of oil-based industry, ranching, and war. Orwell meets Garcia-Marquez meets Vonnegut, Jr. meets Gary Larson's Farside....at a cheap vegas buffet...lollipopping for days Make it yours today

Rules are Meant to be Broken Warning: this is a sexy book. Please Mum, DO NOT READ THIS BOOK. In Zipp Toto's book-a-month quest, Secret Spark marks his August book--that though it came late, is a serious case of PP: Premature Publication.

A found computer tower. A missing editor. In Apartment 9b, fairies from all over the world have migrated to feast on the poems of Patti Puffinease--only to tend to torture, derision, erasure, and silence. In Zipp Toto's graduate thesis, when the literary world of poets was split into Spoken Word vs. Page Poets, Come See seeks to have them dance together. The literal and the oral overlap, two wings to the same sweet bird, in the flight known as poetry. This is a companion piece to The Vidyodhara: a factocritical fractal; a critical exploration into the realms of belief, language, and imagination. The thesis to end all thesis. An anti-thesis. Zipp Toto (aka Andre Rodrigues), graduated with an MA in English from the University of Calgary, was managing editor of dANDelion, produced a collection of short films, SALT: films from the Hair, and is in the band, Moon, Moon, No Moon.

In 2007, Andre' Rodrigues began his MA thesis about why he didn't want to write a thesis. It was an anti-thesis; as such, it had to be a thesis to end all thesis. In it, he addresses belief, language, myth and posits a unifying theory, talks about Faith, God, Death, & Love, plausits Compatalism--the bastard child of Capitalism and Communism--portraits the Superegolessid, and doodles the schematics to a perpetual energy device. From Derrida to Dangerous, literary theory is flipped on its head, through language, through word, through sound, & expressed through unbridled imagination. Over 10 years ago, he had to cut it down to a 25-page essay, but today, it is collected in its entirety to his humility. Zipp Toto is Nairobi-born, Fort McMurray-bread, and Calgary-buttered wondering wandering storyteller teacher. He is in a band, Moon, Moon, No Moon

In a book praised by Times Literary Supplement as "richly detailed and thoughtfully written" and by Wall Street Journal as "compelling," Samuel Zipp sheds new light on the rise and fall of urban renewal in the decades after World War II. Focusing on four iconic "Manhattan projects"--the United Nations building, Stuyvesant Town, Lincoln Center, and the great swaths of public housing in East Harlem--Zipp unearths a host of forgotten stories and characters that flesh out the conventional history of urban renewal. He shows how boosters hoped to make Manhattan the capital of modernity and a symbol of American power, but even as the builders executed their plans, a chorus of critics revealed the dark side of those visions, attacking urban renewal for perpetuating deindustrialization, racial segregation, and class division, for uprooting thousands, and for implanting a new, alienating cityscape. Urban renewal was not merely a failed planning ideal, Zipp concludes, but also a crucial phase in the transformation of New York into a world city, but one mired in urban crisis. The book won Honorable Mention for the Ellis W. Hawley Prize of the Organization of American Historians.

Winner of the Robert H. Ferrell Book Prize“The Idealist is a powerful book, gorgeously written and consistently insightful. Samuel Zipp uses the 1942 world tour of Wendell Willkie to examine American attitudes toward internationalism, decolonization, and race in the febrile atmosphere of the world’s first truly global conflict.”—Andrew Preston, author of Sword of the Spirit, Shield of FaithA dramatic account of the plane journey undertaken by businessman-turned-maverick-internationalist Wendell Willkie to rally US allies to the war effort. Willkie’s tour of a planet shrunk by aviation and war inspired him to challenge Americans to fight a rising tide of nationalism at home.In August 1942, as the threat of fascism swept the world, a charismatic Republican presidential contender boarded the Gulliver at Mitchel Airfield for a seven-week journey around the world. Wendell Willkie covered 31,000 miles as President Roosevelt’s unofficial envoy. He visited the battlefront in North Africa with General Montgomery, debated a frosty de Gaulle in Beirut, almost failed to deliver a letter to Stalin in Moscow, and allowed himself to be seduced by Chiang Kai-shek in China. Through it all, he was struck by the insistent demands for freedom across the world.In One World, the runaway bestseller he published on his return, Willkie challenged Americans to resist the “America first” doctrine espoused by the war’s domestic opponents and warned of the dangers of “narrow nationalism.” He urged his fellow citizens to end colonialism and embrace “equality of opportunity for every race and every nation.” With his radio broadcasts regularly drawing over 30 million listeners, he was able to reach Americans directly in their homes. His call for a more equitable and interconnected world electrified the nation, until he was silenced abruptly by a series of heart attacks in 1944. With his death, America lost its most effective globalist, the man FDR referred to as “Private Citizen Number One.”At a time when “America first” is again a rallying cry, Willkie’s message is at once chastening and inspiring, a reminder that “one world” is more than a matter of supply chains and economics, and that racism and nationalism have long been intertwined.

You will see a picture of the social issues of the day and have insight into the pioneers of Contemporary Christian Music who gave their gifts to the Lord to 'win a few' because it was their calling--a calling that is seeing new life in his children today.Author Ed Zipp was a pioneer of the movement as well, mentoring artists, hosting new artist showcases and birthing coffee houses in Florida during the 70s.'First Love' features an exclusive foreword, written by Christian music icon, Chuck Girard, who was a dear friend of the author.
