...resist him? Mouth agape, face slapped between his hands, Culkin's visage is America's home-sweet-home version of Edvard Munch's The Scream, with the angst pasteurized. In the just-released My Girl, a story about a motherless, hypochondriac tomboy and her best friend Thomas J. (Culkin), he does the unspeakable for a preadolescent (has his first screen kiss) and the unthinkable for a budding megastar (dies well before the end). "It was easy," says Mack.

Normality withers in this anthology, only to be reborn in grotesque form. The bleak life of a homeless woman is snuffed out through blind chance in "Zombies on Broadway," by Kaz, whose characters recall the hollow face and tortured body of the man in Edvard Munch's "The Scream."

One day that scream will be commemorated with a plaque, he writes, "and people will walk past it and remember. And they will think: This was the last scream they screamed before they left organized labor." If Geoghegan is right, his book is an eloquent epitaph...
Will the next conscript in the war on drugs be an inch-long, greenish-white beastie with a taste for coca leaves? The idea of bombarding the high mountain valleys of Bolivia and Peru with millions of eggs from the malunya moth, which in its caterpillar stage loves to munch on the foliage of the cocaine- producing plant, got a lot of play in Washington last week...
