Rose's apartment has two rooms, the kitchen and an all-purpose room where the seven of them sleep. Benjamin, Daisy and Sabrina sleep in the bed. Davey, Joey and Dino sleep on the floor. Rose takes the couch. They have no phone; the bathtub leaks; the ceiling is splotched with water stains. Yet this is the best place they've ever had. For a month before this, Rose and the children lived in a car, and bathing was carried out in Rose's girlfriend's apartment. Compared with then, Rose says, the sky's the limit these days...

Hannah may come from the wilds of Davey Jone's Locker but Rosanna Arquette in DESPERATELY SEEKING SUSAN (Dunster House) hails from far less civilized terrain--New Jersey. A frustrated suburban housewife of a swimming pool salesman. Arquette goes on a spiritual quest after Susan, a debauchedly primal nymphet played by the debauchedly primal Madonna.

Mapping tactics with the infielders, Johnson has scarcely a word for Gooden, the 6-ft. 3-in. centerpiece of the team. He is a slender stalk from Florida, a righthander. Even in repose, the impression...

...took Marjorie Morningstar some 400 pages to lose her virginity. Davey Goodkind needs 500 and a chapter titled "Consummation." There is a touch of self-mockery in this, though Goodkind's long-windedness leaves little doubt of his underlying self-importance. He appears modest about his role in Government but leaves the impression that he was decisive in securing U.S. aid for Israel during the October War. His on-again-off-again affair with a Gentile show girl is elevated to a grand romantic passion when all the evidence suggests that our hero was merely having a good time before...
