December 2nd, 2011, 17:33 | No comments

The year is coming to an end, and we’ll leave our beloved offices for some winter holiday. Since there’s always only one person handling your order – that’s me, Karl – that means there will be a break in delivery of physical goods, such as Destroyer magazines and books:

  • Monday 5th of December is the last day to place your order at Ilovemags.com if you want your goods delivered this year!
  • You can still order things after that date, but they will be delivered to you early January 2012.
  • Downloads are not affected – they are always available in your Ilovemags account immediately upon purchase.

So you have until Monday at midnight to buy yourself a Christmas present. And if you do, I’ll give you one as well:

  • All (physical) orders placed from now until (throughout) Monday 5th December 2011 will include a free copy of the world’s sexiest tabloid newspaper Breaking Boy News!

Some recent items in our shop:

Shallow Tourist by Moot: 20 euro

Destroyer Magazine: Issues 3-9: 10 euro. Issue 10: 12 euro. (Issue 1 and 2 still sold out!)

The Appendix: 15 euro. (Or 7,50 if ordered together with Gay Man’s Worst Friend – the Story of Destroyer Magazine)

Breaking Boy News: Included with your order for free until Monday 5th December 2011! (Otherwise 10 euro.)

Shallow Tourist available at Gaybooks.de

November 26th, 2011, 11:00 | No comments

Hey boys, now you can buy Shallow Tourist, the sexy boy photo book by Moot, at Gay-and-Lesbianbooks.de. They even wrote a very nice little review to it. Read it in German, because though I understand all of it I find it a bit too hard to translate without losing the feeling of it:

Jetzt macht der Mann hinter dem DESTROYER Magazin, Karl Andersson, also Ernst mit seinem Verlag „Entartetes Leben“ und bringt den ersten Bildband heraus. Jungs und Männer irgendwo zwischen Schutzalter und Volljährigkeit, mal mehr mal weniger bekleidet, findet man(n) „naturgemäß“ darin. Aber auch Bushaltestellen, Landschaften und Essensreste …,  denn dieses kleinformatige Coffee-Table-Book ist eine Reisebericht in Bildern durch den Osten Europas. Arty, sexy, schick!

As always, you can also order Shallow Tourist at Ilovemags.com.

Buy the Destroyer book at Amazon – also available for the Kindle!

Amazon has recently stocked up on Gay Man’s Worst Friend – the Story of Destroyer Magazine. You can buy it here. Please write reviews and “like” it – if you like it. :)

The book is also available as a Kindle edition – you can buy it at Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.de, depending on your country and in which currency you’d like to pay. The price is 9.99 dollars, or the equivalent in pounds and euros. VAT is added for European customers.

As always, the book is also available in our own shop Ilovemags.com. That’s the only place where you can add a printed appendix in full colour to your order, to a cost of 5 euros.

The appendix contains some of the best content from Destroyer, like the interview with boy photographer Cosidetto from the long sold-out issue 2, as well as several photos that has relevance to the content of the book, which in itself contains only text.

Some photos from the appendix:

All book orders at Ilovemags (and at Amazon for that matter) include a book mark from Entartetes Leben. So the full package (book + appendix + book mark) will look like this:

The Destroyer book is now in stock

Karl Andersson: Bögarnas värsta vän - historien om tidningen Destroyer

The book “Bögarnas värsta vän – historien om tidningen Destroyer” (Gay Men’s Worst Friend – the Story about Destroyer Magazine) by Karl Andersson (that’s me!) is now available at Ilovemags:

Buy it here!

And if you want me to sign it for you, don’t forget to tell me so in the comment field when checking out.

The book ships worldwide, but please note that this book is in Swedish. The English translation is scheduled for early 2011.

The book contains no images, only text. It’s a description of the reactions that Destroyer caused during its four years (2006-2010), as well as a personal account of why I started the magazine, who the readers were (you lived in 37 countries!), and other stuff related to Destroyer.

The reception of the book in Sweden has been very positive. Two of Sweden’s four biggest newspapers (Aftonbladet and Svenska Dagbladet) have written long articles about it in their culture sections, illustrated with covers and spreads from the magazine. I will translate those articles for you in time.

I also had a reading at a gallery in Stockholm last Wednesday. It was so popular that everyone couldn’t get in – there was a long line on the street outside. The event was attended by some of Sweden’s most influential writers, including Unni Drougge, who blogged about it (in Swedish). Also read 之乎者也 and Johanna Sjödin (both in Swedish), not to mention Panchamkauns (yes, in Swedish too).

The book is printed in 500 copies.
