A propos de cet article

The Author's Cut : WITH 80 PAGES OF SUPLEMENTARY MATERIAL: author interviews, magazine reviews, press items and releases, done in scrapbook format . On the front and back covers: Adriana Lima photographed by Ellen von Unwerth. Chandler for the 90s: (*****) Word is pure 40s cool and paragraphs swing with voiceover rhythms that put Harrison Ford's Blade Runner monologues to shame. Beautiful babes, New York wasps and sleazy zillionaires flit through Word, larger than life and twice as interesting. - Carrie O'Grady, The Guardian (England) A torrent of L.A. buzzwords and insider cynicism unmatched since Odets and Lehman's Sweet Smell of Success took on Manhattan. The Hell-A hypechat will flick all of your fuses. - Kirkus Reviews Flashy and dark, this energetic Nathanael West retake offers a rich Hollywood menu of pandering, ambition, power, and retribution. - Publishers Weekly Magnificent Obsessions: Word, the book Bret Ellis didn't write, is Felske's satire of Hollywood, i.e., 'Star Camp, ' and he does a great job with female movie colony characters. - Playboy The Shallow Man turned fashion on its head bringing the term 'modelizer' into the collective conscious. With tough-talking Word, Felske is back, red-eyeing it over Tinseltown's turf. - Detour By page 3 of this sharp send-up of all things Hollywood, you'll be patting yourself on the back for having discovered Word before Variety announces its arrival at a theater near you. - Marie Claire If We Gave Out Book Awards: Edgiest Boy, Word. Felske's anti-hero hilariously manages to find some beating hearts inside the hippest Hollywood hyphenates. - Glamour Word belongs to the growing genre of Hollywood novels in which idealistic filmmakers experience disillusionment and con artists and charlatans occupy the positions of power. - USA Today Word is winningly told, with often ferocious humor, including a fresh, funny argot. Recommended for fiction collections. - Library Journal A vicious story of the movie-driven anathema of depth that is L.A, Felske's tale about aching for success and the price of achieving it will remind you why you live in Northern California. - San Francisco Metropolitan Word, is a jazzy, ironic appreciation of writing, filmmaking, and chasing skirt. In two of those arts, at least, downtown novelist Coerte V.W. Felske seems more than passingly adept. - New York Magazine The word on Word is all good. - Page Six, The New York Post. …
