Summary: No way, Jose, can you see
Comment: There is a certain dimension of ironic cleverness that we have a right to expect from soi-disant language writers, but lacking here is that joie de vivre that enlivens language. I'm afraid that a gust of Guest, blowing hard, won't do much more than huff and puff.

Rating: 5
Summary: Poetic evocation of classic hollywood
Comment: Guest is an important poet, but this book of prose sketches or "movie stories" can be appreciated by those who might not find their way into her more ethereal verse. What really comes through is a tremendously subtle sensibility both to language and to the visual arts, expressed with a sharp, intelligent sense of humor.
