CUPS MAGAZINE 1991-2000

CUPS MAGAZINE was a child of the 1990s. Who reads books anymore? Most people in cafes now, just cruise the internet and look at OK Cupid and Ebay and Wikipedia. In the 1990s, we drank coffee and read novels, and argued about poetry films and politics. Today's young hipsters could hardly give a flying fuck. They are more concerned with finding a good weed connection and getting a check from their parents. CUPS MAGAZINE explored the existential bohemianism of last great decade.

This was a free magazine that existed before the Starbucks generation. Interviews with Andrew Vachss and Jayne County? Magazines today wouldn't even bother today. Today is so lame stream. Most of the writers of Anthem and Vice wouldn't know who these people are.

This was the first magazine with FIONA APPLE on the cover. Also we had articles about Gram Parsons and Serge Gainsbourg in 1997. Nobody even knew who they were back then. And also three interviews with some authors like Paul Theroux? Today even Vanity Fair hardly features any worthy news about fiction writers.
