Navigating their way through the most innocuous of scenes, the three poets descend into the abyss. McCain calls upon her guide, Sharon Tate, for advice. Conway and Trinidad plummet down a series of rabbit holes and time tunnels, where they revisit first meetings and mass murders, and ponder the contents of Anne’s purse.
Nice Guys Don’t Work In Hollywood: The Adventures of an Aesthete in the Movie Businessby Curtis Harrington (Drag City, paper, 272 pp.).
Review by James Marshall
