Claptrap: Notes from Hollywood

by Stephen Gyllenhaal

Poetry is the foundation of the many facets of Stephen Gyllenhaal's husband, father, movie-man, friend, observer of Hollywood and the details of American life. Claptrap is the lifeblood vision of a Hollywood that exemplifies consumer culture. Few poets have depicted the "glitz" so well and seen the human condition behind it.
