is it a great book or even a well-written one?
no matter
it's beside the point |||||||||||||||||it's what it does. it does 'strange' things to a reader picking it up randomly beside herself in a lonesome metro ride.
similarly over at no family life time blues one hears the drift of personal need combining with the rocky chords and bango riffs of desire the wants of a hunger machine grabbing at life wherever 'it comes' a s the sides of things go off and wander into their own cement.

_______________ Glam Parson's book is a machine clipped together to make something work for the writer in the same way a band may or may not work on any given night---a listner sits down or puts on her mp 3 player and finds herself awash with feelings she might not want to hear at that given moment. but does it matter? what matters is how you feel and what you do with it even if you don't like a given stress in the singer's vocals of a ny one song
. life is a fragment of one . Everyone is BrokEn and doing the best they can . the best one can is a fragment of love's mysterious cobra. A wom b filled with life, violins, bangos, bass, an d basement tapes of one kind and another.
In Axis of Elvis you get the similar sideeffect of a world living upside down or sideways hanging as if an owl had bounced off his feet and landed on his head. Where is the writer? and where the hell are the commas?
But after a time bitching about these matters you give in at last as yo u do to an imperfect person offering you love. in all their immaterial imperfect way.
So it is.
