The rock n' roll and popular culture magazine Kicks was started by Billy Miller and Miriam Linna in 1979 and ran for seven book-length issues. An oversized photo book documenting the rock & roll work of Charlton and Good Publications chief photographer Eddie Rocco was published as the first the Kicks book. Now, the pocket paperback line is taking center stage.
Kicks Books are presented as paperback "talls" -- Signet-sized pocketbooks designed to slide easily into the hip pocket of one's jeans. The concept is affordable, portable, uniquely different fiction, biography, and poetry, presented attractively as bound printed matter, running the gamut of literary excellence.
Each paperback is also issued in a limited boxed edition, and a promotional perfume for each book is also available as supply allows.
