Leyner, Mark I Smell Esther Williams: And Other Stories
New York, New York, U.S.A. Vintage Books 1995 0679750452 / 9780679750451 Trade Paperback Fine
Fine condition. NO remainder marks or clippings. Tight spine, bright pages. NO writing, marks or tears inside book. 197 pages. Synopsis A community theater's production of Special Yearnings triggers a string of underground nuclear explosions from St. Louis to Worcester, Massachusetts. A man frantically swats at the blaze that his girlfriend has ignited in his trousers, while her family tries to figure out whether his agonized sign language means "Under the Volcano" or "No Time for Sergeants." Charo, Marianne Faithfull, and Napoleon's sister swap glittering witticisms and pornographic come-ons with languid aesthetes and unhinged suburbanites. Such scenarios are just par for the course in this gloriously disorienting volume by Mark Leyner, author of My Cousin, My Gastroenterologist and Et Tu, Babe, and a writer who plays the English language the way Jimi Hendrix played the guitar: at blinding speed, dangerous volume, and with a perfect mixture of lyricism and sheer menace. Annotation In his debut collection, the author of Et Tu, Babe and My Cousin, My Gastroenterologist and one of our finest young practitioners of the art of literary disorientation plays the English language the way Jimi Hendrix played the guitar--at dangerous volume, blinding speed, and with a fine mixture of lyricism and sheer menace. Publishers Weekly Marianne Faithful and Napoleon's sister have cameos in this outlandish first short-story collection from the author of Et Tu, Babe.
