The Great Gatsby
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Scribner, 1999
Breathtaking
+ Simply the Greatest Novel Ever Written
It has been a while since I read a book in one sitting. It has also been a while since I first read "The Great Gatsby". Since then, I read articles and saw movies about F. Scott Fotzgerald and his wife Zelda. It is hard not to draw some similarities between Fitzgerald's best work and the way his ...

Scribner, 2006
Chuck Klosterman is the kind of man I would want a summer romance with
+ wonderful read
JUST SHUT UP AND BUY IT. I've read this and a Decade of Dangerous and they are both highly entertaining and very addicting if you are into music, obsessive habits and cosmic ideas.

The Fuck-Up
Arthur Nersesian
MTV/Pocket Books, 1999
Excellent
+ Could not put it down.
+ Buy IT

Chinese Takeout: A Novel
Arthur Nersesian
Harper Perennial, 2003
A More Mature Bohemian Novel
+ Nersesian's style is brilliant
+ Channelling Bukowski
CHINESE TAKEOUT by Arthur Nersesian is yet another bohemian story by the master of the downtown New York City novel. If you've read his other books you would know what I mean. The pacing of CHINESE TAKEOUT is a bit slower and more polished, more mature and disciplined than his previous works, ...
