...novel caught on despite the rotten reviews, all of which were correct. It is true that the novel is badly structured, has few real characters, is unevenly written, and is totally unbelievable for the last hundred and fifty pages. But it is probably the finest post-rock novel yet written...

...Brecht wanted to slap an audience into intellectual awareness so that it would correct the evils of the age, Artaud wanted to gore it into a blood-dripping emotional awareness of the anguish of the age; Among those who have most notably tried to follow Artaud's precepts in the modern theater are Julian Beck and Judith Malina's Living Theater, British Director Peter Brook (Marat/ Sade) and Director Jerzy Gro-towski with his Polish Laboratory Theater. The Living Theater is sloppy, Brook is marvelously disciplined but a trifle too cerebral, and Grotowski combines fantastic discipline with lacerating...

...wandering, derivative personal statements that fill up most underground newspapers, Brian Keating's "Cancer City" is about why he can't leave New York. One can only conclude the editor included it and put it in its prominent page six position to suggest that there is not even a Correct Line on your attitude to New York City. Jon Maslow's "Dylan Piece," a reprint from Avatar, tells us how great Dylan is, partly in Dylan's own words. Maslow also contributes "The Tower," an allegorical story about a tower which the people build and then destroy...
