Lionel Rolfe's "Literary L.A."
By Paul Lappen, Dead Trees Review Based on a series of newspaper pieces written in the late 1970s, this book profiles some of the people who made Los Angeles' bohemian culture in the 20th century. Many people think that San Francisco, with the Beat Generation, was the "center" of bohemian living, but the City of Angels had quite a thriving culture of its own. It all grew out of the coffeehouse ...

62 poets from around the country tell it like it is!
62 poets from coffeehouses around the country tell it like it is. This collection is a treasure. It is a 'first'; there's lots of good stuf inside, and a sure feeling for the contemporary 'hip' poetry scene. Moreover, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, founder of City Lights Books, (the press that first published Allen Ginsberg), has given his endorsement of the book by allowing his Poet's Manifesto to ...

Another masterpiece by Doris Burn ....
While spending Mother's Day in the emergency room with my oldest (he cut his leg, 15 stitches), my husband went to find some books for him to read (9 years old) while we waited for the doctor. He returned with a handful of books, Andrew Henry's Meadow among them. We fell in love with this book around page five. My husband wrote down the pertinent information so we could try to find it later ...

First instalment of a great saga
This is the first volume in the 9 volume sweeping family saga, and it sets the high watermark. In many ways I think it is the best, most especially the final chapter, when one era segues into the next, as generational change occurs. It is probably a particular type of reader who enjoys fiction which examines the drawing room manners and social mores of upper middle class England (the ...

I love Carol Lay
I first became acquainted with Carol Lay's alternative comic strip "Story Minute" a couple of years ago through Salon.com. Each strip tells a "Twilight Zone"-esque story in a 12-panel comic format, and they're written so superbly that Rod Serling himself would be proud. Once you read a "Story Minute" strip, you'll never go back to Garfield again. This collection of 102 black-and-white "minutes" ...

Great book to have when you are traveling!
This book is a must have for anyone traveling Interstate 5. I especially like it for the details on pet areas and trailer access. It's the perfect size to fit in the glove box. This book also makes a great gift! The information on the kiosks around our local area is helpful too. If you are even in the next town over, you can look in the book and find a spot to stop.

A Challenging, Thought Provoking Story
While it's written for everyone, this is an important book for open-minded men to read. On the surface, it is deceptively simple: the story of Maya as she attempts to deal with post-divorce relationships and find a compatible, intellectually-equal partner. Beneath the surface is a fascinating and brutally-honest portrayal of the impact that culturally-conditioned male behaviors have on her...from ...

I liked it because it ...

A fascinating look at unrecognized unconventional writings
I found the title eye catching and to me it said unique. After I picked it up and flipped through it, I was very intrigued and could not help buying the book. After I read it I was enlightened by such a different style of writing and it motivated me to look for more writings on the web. I especially enjoyed seeing the writers other pieces of work. I love this new anthology
