All you haters: Please stop hating on Rick Moody. He is one of the only writers with a hip, po-mo aesthetic who I can actually stomach. Alright, so Right Livelihoods is not his most impressive work. It's not on par with Garden State, or The Ice Storm, or even The Diviners (which I really loved). But as a work of "post-September 11" fiction (a designation that makes my skin crawl a bit) I found it satisfying, clever, and thought provoking to an extent rivaled only by the Lemony Snicket books, in terms of fiction.
