Reviews

[Nathan "N.R." Gaddis]

I dunno. Some kinda forgotten meta-experiementalist-sorta from recent decades. Maybe this one looks like a novel? He's got some short story collections floating around which no one reads except for Friend Eric who's got a quasi-review available for some other or whatnot of a book by this Katz guy (whose name sounds like a cartoonist).

[Robert Wechsler]

I liked the idea of this mixture of varying novelistic approaches, but the execution didn’t grab me and I put it down.
