...name of the author of Moby Dick . It was intended as an homage to the things American that he admired - most particularly genre crime films. It is therefore an irony that his work is so little known in the United States, though Bob LeFlambeur, released here in the ?80s, about robbing the take at a Deauville casino, is the greatest heist movie I?ve ever seen.

Hey, we’ve got to impress the pre-frosh, right? Leverett’s biannual 80s dance was the same as it ever was (Talking Heads, anyone?), but still totally radical. The Eliot Cockpit served up a Kool-Aid punch out of one of those ubiquitous dining hall urns that prompted one prefrosh to ask “Do you guys have any more coffee...
