...under Nero who finally incurred the emperor's wrath and calmly severed his veins. The analogy could be extended: Petronius authored another "bad-tasting" book, the Satyricon, which, like Myra Breckinridge, is a dazzlingly unique contribution to the world's comic literature. Only those whose discrimination is flawless can achieve what Brigid Brophy calls "the dizzying, the rococo heights of true bad taste...
Boys in the Band--A devastating concoction of humor and biterness centered around a homosexual birthday party. The action and dialogue (by Mart Crowley) are grimly explicit, and the all-new cast (under Robert Moore's flawless direction) should be as good as their original counterparts.

On the third day, Astronauts McDivitt and Schweickart got ready to enter Spider through the 47-in.-long, 32-in.-diameter connecting tunnel...

But when Test Pilot Andre Turcat gunned the cluster of four jet engines, the Concorde climbed swiftly and steeply. After 27 minutes of subsonic flight, it made an equally flawless, steep-pitched landing. After that, champagne corks popped around Blagnac Airport, and newspapers in Britain and France brought out big, bold headlines to celebrate...

At 25, he indeed cares a great deal about success, except that he has chosen to pursue it in the challenging and unpredictable world of new music rather than in the classics. He need not have done so. His flawless technique and singing interpretative style would have been enough to rank him with any of his contemporaries in the safe world of traditional concert life. But while Zukofsky can, and does, play the classics, he sees himself as a latter-day Liszt, introducing the music of his own time, chronicling...
